Biofluid Mechanics: An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Macrocirculation, and Microcirculation 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 among other specialty circulations. In this new third edition the authors have meticulously edited the text to be more concise and to improve the clarity of the writing, and they have added new homework problems and worked examples, including MATLAB-based ones. 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, Biofluid Mechanics: An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Macrocirculation, and Microcirculation, Third Edition is particularly suitable for both senior and graduate-level courses in biofluids. Uses language and math that is appropriate and conducive for undergraduate and first-year graduate learning, containing many new worked examples and end-of-chapter problems Covers topics in the traditional biofluids curriculum, and addresses other systems in the body that can be described by biofluid mechanics principles Discusses clinical applications throughout the book, providing practical applications for the concepts discussed NEW: Added content includes new chapter on heat transfer and new sections on Womersley and Oscillatory Flows NEW: More advanced topics have been marked so that instructors teaching an undergraduate course can omit them without a loss of continuity in the class
