  • Title: Flow in arteries in the presence of stenosis.
    Author: Misra JC, Chakravarty S.
    Journal: J Biomech; 1986; 19(11):907-18. PubMed ID: 3793739.
    Abstract:
    Of concern in the paper is a study of blood flow in an arterial segment having a stenosis. The artery is modelled as an initially stressed orthotropic elastic tube filled with a viscous incompressible fluid. The analysis is based on the assumption of the presence of a mild stenosis in the artery. Blood is treated as a Newtonian fluid. The effect of the surrounding connective tissues on the motion of the wall has been incorporated. Propagation of small amplitude harmonic waves, generated due to the flow of blood where the wave length is large compared to the radius of the arterial segment, is is considered in detail.
