Cardiovascular Biomechanics

The course will provide students with a fundamental understanding of cardiovascular biomechanics. Basic principle of cardiovascular fluid and solid mechanics and modelling techniques will be covered. Analytic and simulations approaches will be used to solve problems in cardiovascular biomechanics. Concepts include Womersley profile solution, constitutive laws for biological materials, lumped parameter modeling of heart and systemic circulation, and Newtonian and non-Newtonian blood properties.
