title: [Modeling of intraorgan arterial vasculatures. II. Propagation of pressure waves].
abstract: The dependences of the wave conductivity of self-similar dichotomous branching models of intraorgan arterial vasculatures on the model parameters have been calculated. It was found that, with different sets of parameters, it is possible to model the sucking effect connected with negative wave reflection at the arterial branching as well as the resonant properties of arterial beds. It was shown that the selection of an adequate model for a given intraorgan vasculature should be based on the agreement between the biophysical characteristics of the model and the vasculature that reflect the propagation and reflection of pulse waves.
