Abstract :
A model of the nonsymmetrical arterial tree was analyzed. The arterial branching model was based on the principle of the electromechanical analogy. The nonsymmetrical arterial tree was divided to 7 arterial generations, starting from larger arteries towards small arteries and arterioles. For each generation the transfer function was calculated and there is presented the pressure simulation results for each arterial generation. Outflow conditions were determined regarding to calculation of the transfer functions and simulation results.
