Numerical prediction of velocity, pressure and shear rate distributions in stenosed channels

Wall shear rates and pressure developed in circulatory system play an important role on the development of some clinical problems such as atherosclerosis and thrombosis. In the present work, blood flow behaviour was numerically studied in simplified domains and several relevant local properties were...
