Product Description
"Biology and Mechanics of Blood Flows" presents the basic knowledge and state-of-the-art techniques necessary to carry out investigations of the cardiovascular system using modeling and simulation. Part II of this two-volume sequence, Mechanics and Medical Aspects, refers to the extraction of input data at the macroscopic scale for modeling the cardiovascular system, and complements Part I, which focuses on nanoscopic and microscopic components and processes. This volume contains chapters on anatomy, physiology, continuum mechanics, as well as pathological changes in the vasculature walls including the heart and their treatments. Methods of numerical simulations are given and illustrated in particular by application to wall diseases. This authoritative book will appeal to any biologist, chemist, physicist, or applied mathematician interested in the functioning of the cardiovascular system. |

| Biology and Mechanics of Blood Flows: Part I: Biology (CRM Series in Mathematical Physics) (Pt. 1)
by Marc Thiriet (Author)
"Biology and Mechanics of Blood Flows" presents the basic knowledge and state-of-the-art techniques necessary to carry out investigations of the cardiovascular system using modeling and simulation. Part I of this two-volume sequence, Biology, addresses the nanoscopic and microscopic scales. The nanoscale corresponds to the scale of biochemical reaction cascades involved in cell adaptation to mechanical stresses among other stimuli. The microscale is the scale of stress-induced tissue remodeling...

| Vascular Hemodynamics: Bioengineering and Clinical Perspectives
by Peter J. Yim (Author)
The only complete work on vascular hemodynamics
Recently, vascular hemodynamics has undergone major advances, resulting from increasingly sophisticated imaging, computational, and clinical research methodologies. The effects of these advances are likely to be profound at both the scientific and clinical levels. Now, Vascular Hemodynamics provides a self-contained treatment of this rapidly advancing topic as it relates to vascular disease and related pathologies in the human...

| McDonald's Blood Flow in Arteries: Theoretical, Experimental and Clinical Principles (Hodder Arnold Publication)
by Wilmer W. Nichols (Author), Michael F. O'Rourke (Author)
This classic text, first published in 1960 and introducing at that time an entirely new approach to the study of arterial hemodynamics, provides a theoretical basis to understanding blood flow in normal disease conditions. It examines the relationship between pulsatile pressure and flow in the arteries using a mathematical model of fluid flow principles. The current authors have developed the ground-breaking work of Donald McDonald through three editions during a period in which arterial...

| The Physics of Pulsatile Flow (Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering)
by M. Zamir (Author), E.L. Ritman (Foreword)
The goal of this book is to provide in a single source, and at the level of textbook, a complete treatment of the fluid dynamics of steady and pulsatile flow in tubes with the required mathematics and emphasis on basic mechanics. The style and level of the book will be accessible to students and researchers in biophysics, biology, medicine, bioengineering and applied mathematics, in theoretical or clinical work on the cardiovascular system, as well as in the design of new instrumentation,...

| Mathematical Physiology: II: Systems Physiology (Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics)
by James Keener (Author), James Sneyd (Author)
There has been a long history of interaction between mathematics and physiology. This book looks in detail at a wide selection of mathematical models in physiology, showing how physiological problems can be formulated and studied mathematically, and how such models give rise to interesting and challenging mathematical questions. With its coverage of many recent models it gives an overview of the field, while many older models are also discussed, to put the modern work in context. ...
