In order to study the influence of pulsating blood flow to robot and blood vessel, UDF programming of the inlet velocity is defined as the boundary condition, and the model simulate the turbulent blood flow. Moreover, in this situation, this paper analyzes the influence caused by blood parameters for the biggest surface pressure on robot. The results are showed that the variation of pressure and velocity is different on different position at 0.08s and 0.27s, and the surface pressure of the robot become greater by the increase of blood density or viscosity.

Pulsatile flow of blood in a blood vessel having time-dependent shape (diameter) is investigated numerically in order to understand some important physiological phenomena in arteries. A smooth axi-symmetric cosine shaped constriction is considered. To mimic the realistic situation as far as possible, viscosity of blood is taken to be non-uniform, a shear-thinning viscosity model is considered and a physiologically relevant pulsatile flow is introduced. Taking advantage of axi-symmetry in the proposed problem, the stream function–vorticity formulation is used to solve the governing equations for blood flow. Effect of different parameters associated with the problem on the flow pattern has been investigated and disparities from the Newtonian case are discussed in detail.

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against blood vessel walls as the heart pumps out blood, and high blood pressure, also called hypertension, is an increase in the amount of force that blood places on blood vessels as it moves through the body. Factors that can increase this force include higher blood volume due to extra fluid in the blood and blood vessels that are narrow, stiff, or clogged(1). High blood pressure can damage blood vessels in the kidneys, reducing their ability to work properly. When the force of blood flow is high, blood vessels stretch so blood flows more easily. Eventually, this stretching scars and weakens blood vessels throughout the body, including those in the kidneys.

Dynamic optical coherence tomography (D-OCT) is a relatively new technique that may be used to study the substructures in the retina, in the skin and its microcirculation. Furthermore, D-OCT is a validated method of imaging blood flow in skin microcirculation. The skin around venous and mixed arterio-venous ulcers was imaged and found to have tortuous vessels assumed to be angiogenic sprouts, and classified as dots, blobs, coils, clumps, lines, and curves. When these images were analyzed and measurements of vessel density were made, it was observed that the prevalence of coils and clumps in wound borders was significantly greater compared with those at wound centers. This reinforced the belief of inward growth of vessels from wound edge toward wound center which, in turn, reposed confidence in following the wound edge to study healing. D-OCT imaging permits the structure and the function of the microcirculation to be imaged, and vessel density measured. This offers a new vista of skin microcirculation and using it, to better understand angiogenesis in chronic wounds.
