A lumped model for blood flow and pressure in the systemic arteriesbased on an approximate velocity profile function by Wouter Huberts, E. Marielle H. Bosboom, Frans N. van de Vosse

“…Previously, by assuming a viscous dominated flow in the boundary layer and an inertia dominated flow in the vessel core, a velocity profile function for a 1D-wave propagation model was derived. Because the time dependent shape of the velocity profile in this boundary layer model depends on the size of the inviscid core and the boundary layer, and thus on the Womersley number, it differs along the arterial tree. …”
