Effect of branchings on blood flow in the system of human coronary arteries

In this work, we investigate the behavior of the pulsatile bloodflow in the system of human coronary arteries. Blood is modeled asan incompressible non-Newtonian fluid. The transient phenomena ofblood flow through the coronary system are simulated by solving thethree dimensional unsteady state Navie...
