Biomedical Fluid Mechanics

BMED-6580

This course covers the dynamics of fluid flow in the human physiological system. Engineering principles and fluid dynamic concepts will be taught in the context of cardiovascular system. Topics include: pulsatile flow in arteries, vascular compliance and wave propagation, impedance, cardiac mechanics, dynamic coupling of ventricle and systemic circulation, blood flow in vein, coronary circulation, microcirculation, blood flow at complex geometries, imaging techniques in clinical hemodynamic assessment, fluid mechanics in designing and testing circulatory implants.
