  • Abstract
    Pressure waveforms measured at different locations in the cardiovascular system present a very similar diastolic decay. Previous work has shown the cardiovascular system can be modelled as a Windkessel and wave system. This concept has been extended to any arbitrary location in the cardiovascular system.
