Graduate Courses BIOE 2310BIOE 2310 - Hemodynamics and BiotransportInstructor: William Federspiel Credits: 3 Term: Spring Description: This course covers the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and mass transport as applicable to physiological and biological systems. The fluid mechanics coverage emphasizes blood flow in the cardiovascular system. Topics include Poiseville flow and circulatory flow resistance, blood rheology and tube flow of blood, pulsatile blood flow in arteries, and microcirculatory blood flow. The mass transport coverage emphasizes steady and unsteady diffusion, mass transfer coefficients and correlations, controlled release, coupled diffusion and reactions in biological systems.
