Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2006, vol. 27, issue 1, 1-7

Abstract: The blood flow in human arteries has been analytically calculated according to Poiseuille’s equation. Geometry of the fractal arterial trees has been described in previous article [Gabryś E, Rybaczuk M, Kędzia A. Fractal model of circulatory system. Symmetrical and asymmetrical approach comparison. Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, in press]. Blood vessel trees are consisted of straight, rigid cylindrical tubes. In each bifurcation two new children segments appears according to Murray law.
