Contents:

Part 1: Fluid Mechanics Basics 1. Introduction 2. Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics 3. Conservation Laws 4. Introduction to Heat Transfer Part 2: Macrocirculation 5. The Heart 6.Blood Flow in Arteries and Veins Part 3: Microcirculation 7. Microvascular Beds 8. Mass Transport and Heat Transfer in the Microcirculation 9. The Lymphatic System Part 4: Specialty Circulations 10. Ventilation/Perfusion in the Lung 11. Intraocular Fluid Flow 12. Lubrication of Joints and Transport in Bone 13. Flow Through the Kidney 14. Splanchnic Circulation: Liver and Spleen Part 5: Modeling and Experimental Techniques 15. In silico Biofluid Mechanics 16. In vitro Biofluid Mechanics 17. In vivo Biofluid Mechanics

Summary: Biofluid Mechanics: An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Macrocirculation, and Microcirculation, Third Edition shows how fluid mechanics principles can be applied not only to blood circulation, but also to air flow through the lungs, joint lubrication, intraocular fluid movement, renal transport, and other specialty circulations. This new edition contains new homework problems and worked examples, including MATLAB-based examples. In addition, new content has been added on such relevant topics as Womersley and Oscillatory Flows. With advanced topics in the text now denoted for instructor convenience, this book is particularly suitable for both senior and graduate-level courses in biofluids.
