AbstractA general class of implicit difference methods for nonlinear parabolic functional differential equations with initial boundary conditions of the Neumann type is constructed. Convergence results are proved by means of consistency and stability arguments. It is assumed that given functions satisfy nonlinear estimates of Perron type with respect to functional variables. Differential equations with deviated variables and differential integral problems can be obtained from a general model by specializing given operators. The results are illustrated by numerical examples.

Abstract Complete occlusion in any of the coronary vessels leads to a myocardial infarction. The role of fluid mechanical forces in atheroma development has been widely accepted because of preferential plaque growth at certain locations of the vessel geometry, such as a bifurcation or regions of high degrees of curvature. Areas of low and/or oscillatory shear stress have been correlated with atheroma development [1]. In order to determine the relationship between fluid mechanical stresses and development of lesions in the coronary vessels, it is important to analyze the fluid mechanics in actual three-dimensional geometries, incorporating the time-dependent translation and geometric alterations of these vessels [2,3].
