title: [A mathematical model of hemodynamic processes for distal pulse wave formation].
abstract: A mathematical model of the formation of distal arterial pulse wave signal in the blood vessels of the upper limbs was considered. The formation of distal arterial pulse wave is represented as a composition of forward and reverse pulse waves propagating along the human arterial system. The system of formal analogy between pulse waves propagation along the human arterial system and the propagation of electrical oscillations in electrical transmission lines with distributed parameters was proposed. Dependencies of pulse wave propagation along the human arterial system were obtained by solving the one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for a few special cases.
