Abstract :
This paper describes regulatory processes of the adaptive mechanical model of the cardiovascular system (CVS). The CVS model simulates the physiological circulatory system of blood in the mechanical way. This device allows demonstration and measurement of realistic haemodynamic parameters such as blood pressure, cardiac output, vascular resistance etc. The mechanical CVS model is designed for scientific and educational purposes mainly.
