A Physical Model of the Intracranial System for the Study of the Mechanisms of the Cerebral Blood Flow Autoregulation

This paper introduces a novel physical model of the intracranial system, which was built with the specific purpose of gaining a better insight into the fundamental mechanisms involved in the cerebral circulation. Specifically, the phenomena of passive autoregulation of the blood flow and the variati...
