Fractal Operators Abstracted from Arterial Blood Flow.

In this paper, we present a re-established functional fractal circuit model of arterial blood flow that incorporates the shunt effect of the branch vessels. Under the background of hemodynamics, we abstracted a family of fractal operators and investigate the kernel function and properties thereof. Based on fractal operators, the intrinsic relation between Bessel function and Struve function was revealed, and some new special functions were found. The results provide mathematical tools for biomechanics and automatic control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
