On the stationary interaction of a Navier-Stokes fluid with an elastic tube wall.

We study the stationary problem of a viscous, incompressible Navier-Stokes fluid flowing through a flexible tube with thickness. The behavior of the elastic walls of the tube is described by the equations of nonlinear elasticity for a St.Venant-Kirchhoff material. For smooth enough applied exterior forces we prove the existence of a solution to the coupled problem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
