Praise

for Hemo-Dynamics:

“This

book provides an elegant and intuitive derivation of the fundamental mathematics

underlying fluid flow, and then applies these in a straightforward way to

pulsatile blood flow in all its complexity. One of the triumphs of the book is

that Zamir succeeds in making essential concepts such as the Navier-Stokes

equations completely accessible to any reader with a knowledge of basic

calculus.  The author succeeds in conveying both the beauty of his subject

matter, and his passion for the elegance and intricacies of fluid flow more

generally.”

Lindi

Wahl, PhD, Professor of Applied Mathematics, The University of Western

Ontario

“Incredible,

the figures alone are to die for… At first glance “Hemo-Dynamics” seems like a

deep engineering and modeling dive into the mechanical properties of the

cardiovascular system, blood, and how they interact to generate flow and

pressure.  However, the text is laid out in a stepwise manner and I was

especially impressed in the way that the key conceptual figures illustrate the

essential concepts.  In keeping with the philosophical underpinnings of

engineering, Professor Zamir has also constructed his book so that the format,

text, equations and the figures are self-reinforcing. This isa book that will be

of great use to those who seek to understand the cardiovascular system from a

mechanical and m

odeling perspective.”

Reviews for Hemo-Dynamics

The book presents a comprehensive review of mathematical models of blood flow, with a focus on making assumptions necessary to solve the model equations by hand. ... The book is clear and generally easy to follow for someone that has had a differential equations course, and its coverage is comprehensive. If you are looking for a book on (analytical) mathematical models for blood flow, this one should be strongly considered. (Jeffrey J. Heys, Mathematical Reviews, July, 2016)
