BIOMATH 213Modeling Vascular Networks
Biomathematics · 4 units · Graduate courses (200-299)
Introduction to equations that describe fluid flow dynamics and branching, and hierarchal networks to provide survey of models for structure and flow of vascular systems. Vascular systems are nearly ubiquitous in nature, occurring across animals, plants, and other organisms. Coverage of applications to tumor growth and angiogenesis, sleep, allometric scaling, and other phenomena.
