Experimental Studies of Collapsible Tubes

  • Conference paper
Book cover Flow Past Highly Compliant Boundaries and in Collapsible Tubes

Part of the book series: Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications ((FMIA,volume 72))

Abstract

The experimental literature on collapsible tubes is reviewed with reference to historical landmarks, ways of measuring important variables, the main observed phenomena, and the applications in medical therapy and technology. Mechanistic phenomena covered include transitions to and from supercritical flow, prediction of the onset of oscillation, flow-rate limitation, and the collapsible tube as a nonlinear dynamical system.
