Mathematical modelling of flow through shunts : application to patent ductus arteriosus and side-to-side anastomosis
This thesis develops mathematical models for the flow through shunts in the human body in two particular parameter regimes: flows of large Womersley number, i.e. ones dominated by high-frequency terms, and flows of low Reynolds number, e.g. of high viscosity. The first regime can be extended to flow...
