  • Abstract
    Autoregulation of blood flow in human circulatory systems has been observed to the present in both the microcirculatory and macrocirculatory system. A fluid dynamics approach has been taken to show autoregulation of blood flow through veins. A simulated experimental setup was established that showed clearly the existence autoregulation and the parameters affecting its performance.<>
