Transport and deposition problems in blood flow
- Abstract:
-
In this thesis, we examine blood flow dynamics in single vessels and the deposition of transported species to vessel walls. We develop continuum mathematical models to explore the role of fluid mechanics in two applications. First, we examine magnetic targeting applied to stem cell delivery for regenerative medicine. Second, we model the initial stages of arterial blood clot formation (thrombosis). In both applications, we use asymptotic analysis to develop reduced models. This allows us to i...
