Abstract

This paper presents a one-dimensional model, based on Navier Stoke's equations, that predicts the blood pressure and flow in the larger arteries. The outflow condition is based on the assumption of a constant peripheral resistance, i.e. that the ratio between pressure and flow is constant. Simulations are carried out for two cases: 1 - the aorta is regarded as a single tapered tube, and 2 - the iliac bifurcation and part of the femoral arteries are included.
