BIOFLUID MECHANICS
by Jagan N Mazumdar (The University of Adelaide)
Biofluid mechanics is the study of a certain class of biological problems from a fluid mechanics point of view. Biofluid mechanics does not involve any new development of the general principles of fluid mechanics but it does involve some new applications of the method of fluid mechanics. Complex movements of fluids in the biological system demand for their analysis professional fluid mechanics skills.
