Abstract
A nonlinear distributed mathematical model of a soft vessel with a nonmonotonic static characteristic is proposed and considered. The model describes space-time dynamics of the vascular lumen. Wave phenomena in vessels of different nature and the possibility of peristaltic fluid pumping are discussed and analyzed. The model is quite general in character and represents a broad class of transport phenomena. Lymphatic vessels are considered as an example.
