This book contains 87 papers of the 1989 Symposium on mechanical aspects of blood flow and cardiovascular disease. In the first section clinical studies deal with questions such as heart valve replacement surgical bypass techniques, ultrasound studies in humans and animals, the reaction of pharmaceuticals, and the role of hemodynamic reaction on the endothelial cells. In the second section experimental techniques such as ultrasound, laser-Doppler-anemometry, MRI, and flow visualization are discussed. The hemodynamic environment of the circulatory system cell-cell, cell-wall interactions, endothelial responses to shear stress and other parameters as well as research in the field of rheology is represented in the third section. Finally, these proceedings present notable contributions to the field of numerical study of blood flow parameters. The main goal of this 2nd International Symposium was to bring together physicians, physicists, bioengineers, and technical specialists with experience in clinical, experimental, rheological, and numerical analysis of the complex problems of blood flow and cardiovascular disease. Specialists from 22 countries have taken part.
