About the course
Aim
The course aims at giving physical description of pressures and flows in i.e. the circulatory and respiratory system and knowledge about corresponding measurement techniques. Specific goals from an engineering point of view are to:
- Describe fluid dynamics theories and models of physiological systems
- Describe techniques for pressure and flow measurements in physiological systems
- Apply measurement and modelling techniques to various physiological systems
Content
Circulation: Hemodynamics, measurements and clinical applications, fluid mechanics in the circulatory system, models of the circulatory system. Respiration: respiration physiology, respiratory disease and measurements.
