Output of a valveless Liebau pump with biologically relevant vessel properties and compression frequencies
Abstract Liebau pump is a tubular, non-peristaltic, pulsatile pump capable of creating unidirectional flow in the absence of valves. It requires asymmetrical positioning of the pincher relative to the attachment sites of its elastic segment to the rest of the circuit. Biological feasibility of such...
