Biofluid dynamics is also an example of a biological fluid. Types of Fluids Fluids can be classified into four basic types. They are: An Ideal Fluid is a fluid that has no viscosity, means it will offer no resistance, pragmatically this type of fluid does not exist. It is incompressible in nature. Real fluids are compressible in nature. They offer some resistance and thus have viscosity. All Fluids existing are real fluids. A Newtonian Fluid is a fluid whose viscous shear stresses (acting between different layers of fluid and between the fluid layer and surface over which it is flowing) are directly
Vascular resistance Systemic vascular resistance: 18 x 80 = 1440 dyn·s/cm5. These values are in the normal limits. There are many factors that alter the vascular resistance. Vascular compliance is determined by the muscle tone in the smooth muscle tissue of the tunica media and the elasticity of the elastic fibers there, but the muscle tone is subject to continual homeostatic changes by hormones and cell signaling molecules that induce vasodilation and vasoconstriction to keep blood pressure and blood flow within reference ranges. In a first approach, based on fluids dynamics (where the flowing material is continuous and made of continuous atomic
