Dimension Reduced Modeling of Blood Flow in Large Arteries: An Introduction for Master Students and First Year Doctoral Students

ISBN-13: 9783031330865 / Angielski

Opis

This monograph contains an in-depth and coherent treatment of dimension-reduced modeling of blood flows on the level of large vessels (macrocirculation). The authors reduce the complexity by combining a one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation and a simplified FSI-concept. The influence of omitted vessels, which are subsequent to the outlets of larger vessels, is accounted for by systems of ordinary differential equations (0D models). The target audience primarily comprises research experts in the field of biomedical engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students alike.

O autorze

Tobias Köppl is an applied mathematician. He received his PhD in 2015 at the Technical University of Munich. From 2014 to 2018, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the Department for Hydromechanics and Modelling of Hydrosystems of the University of Stuttgart. In December 2020, Dr. Tobias Köppl successfully completed his habilitation at the University of Stuttgart. At the moment he is working as a reseacher at the University of Hasselt. 

Prof. Dr. Rainer Helmig since the year 2000, Rainer Helmig is the head of the Department of Hydromechanics and Moeling of Hydrosystems at the Institute for Modelling Hydraulic and Environmental Systems (IWS) of the University of Stuttgart. His research is focused on developing numerical methods for coupling hydrosystem compartments and complex flow and transport processes as well as integrating data and hydrosystem models.

Rainer Helmig is author of numerous articles and books.
