✦ Synopsis


This paper deals with a mathematical analysis of branching in the microcirculatory system. The specific problem considered is that of blood entering from a feeding artery into a branch capillary. Flow of blood is investigated by considering blood to be plastic of Herschel-Bulkley type. Red cells in blood are taken to be concentrated in the core region, where the concentration profile is specified by a piecewise linear function. Basing upon the said model, an analytical expression for hematocrit reduction in the branch capillary is derived. Quantitative variation of the relative hematocrit is also examined, by considering a specific numerical example.

High frequency velocity disturbances have been observed in arterial blood flow. In their most developed form, such disturbances may manifest themselves as turbulence, a condition which can be recognized by its characteristic frequency spectrum. As part of a study of such disturbances, flow signals o
