Critical assessment of arterial transport models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Works pertinent to arterial transport models are analyzed and a critical assessment of the models utilized in the study of fluid flow and mass transfer within the arteries is presented with an emphasis on the role of porous media. Arterial transport models are assessed and classified based on their ability to physically prescribe the arterial anatomy as well as the related transport processes. Pertinent models such as wall-free, homogeneous-wall, and multi-layer models as well as the governing equations and different types of boundary conditions utilized in each model are analyzed. 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

متن کاملAssessment of the Existing Models to Estimate the Fatigue Life under both Multiaxial in Phase and 90° Out of Phase Loading Conditions
Engineers have a range of methods to estimate the fatigue life under multiaxial conditions. Each of these predictive methods is generally subjected to restrictions, related to the inherent simplified assumptions. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the validity of commonly used multiaxial fatigue criteria for different multiaxial loading conditions. The best criterion is identified throu...
