The Lattice Boltzmann equation for modelling arterial flows : review and application [PDF]
The lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) is a relatively new development in computational fluid dynamics. Here we review the technique with particular emphasis on its application to biological systems.

Physiological Heterogeneity: Fractals Link Determinism and Randomness in Structures and Functions [PDF]
Spatial variation in concentrations or flows within an organ and temproal variation in reaction rates or flows appear to broaden as one refines the scale of observation. How can we characterize heterogeneity independently of scale?

Characteristics of Blood Vessel Wall Deformation with Porous Wall Conditions in an Aortic Arch
Blood vessels have been modeled as non-porous structures that are permeable to solutes mixed in the blood. However, the use of non-physiological boundary conditions in numerical simulations that assume atmospheric pressure at the outlet does not ...

Respiratory muscle blood flows during physiological and chemical hyperpnea in the rat [PDF]
Whether the diaphragm retains a vasodilator reserve at maximal exercise is controversial. To address this issue, we measured respiratory and hindlimb muscle blood flows and vascular conductances using radiolabeled microspheres in rats running at their ...

Diffusion boundary layers ameliorate the negative effects of ocean acidification on the temperate coralline macroalga Arthrocardia corymbosa. [PDF]
Anthropogenically-modulated reductions in pH, termed ocean acidification, could pose a major threat to the physiological performance, stocks, and biodiversity of calcifiers and may devalue their ecosystem services.
