Similarity:

A distributed-parameter (one-dimensional) anatomically detailed model for the arterial network of the arm is developed in order to carry out hemodynamics simulations. This work focuses on the specific aspects related to the model set-up. In this regard, stringent anatomical and physiological considerations have been pursued in order to construct the arterial topology and to provide a systematic estimation of the involved parameters. The model comprises 108 arterial segments, with 64...

Mathematical Model of Fibrin Polymerization

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

Blood clotting system (BCS) modelling is an important issue with a plenty of applications in medicine and biophysics. The BCS main function is to form a localized clot at the site of injury preventing blood loss. Mutual influence of fibrin clot consisting mainly of fibrin polymer gel and blood flow is an important factor for BCS to function properly. The process of fibrin polymer mesh formation has not adequately been described by current mathematical models. That is why it is not possible...

Blood Flow Simulation in Atherosclerotic Vascular Network Using Fiber-Spring Representation of Diseased Wall

We present the fiber-spring elastic model of the arterial wall with atherosclerotic plaque composed of a lipid pool and a fibrous cap. This model allows us to reproduce pressure to cross-sectional area relationship along the diseased vessel which is used in the network model of global blood circulation. Atherosclerosis attacks a region of systemic arterial network. Our approach allows us to examine the impact of the diseased region onto...

Experimental comparison of traffic flow models on traffic data

Horňák, Ivan, Přikryl, Jan

Similarity:

Despite their deficiencies, continuous second-order traffic flow models are still commonly used to derive discrete-time models that help traffic engineers to model and predict traffic oflow behaviour on highways. We brie fly overview the development of traffic flow theory based on continuous flow-density models of Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) type, that lead to the second-order model of Aw-Rascle. We will then concentrate on widely-adopted discrete approximation to the LWR model...
