A propos de ce titre

Synopsis :

This classroom-tested text teaches students how fluid mechanics is applied to the study of the human circulatory system. Reflecting changes in the field since the publication of its predecessor, this second edition includes improved figures, additional examples, and more problems at the end of each chapter. It also presents a new chapter on the computational fluid dynamic analysis of the human circulation, which reflects the rapidly increasing use of computational simulations in research and clinical arenas.
