A model for blood flow in capillaries and its numerical solution

Abstract

Developments in computing and experimental instruments help to solve problems of all medical sciences. Simulations of microcirculation have started to help scientists to make right decisions on microcirculation problems. In this study, earliest studies of the blood circulation in capillary region have been investigated and an existing numerical model of the blood flow in capillary has been studied and compared with the results from the available literature.
