Research and Development Addendum |
|
| Circulation Model The circulation model and comparisons of different types of pumps (and their similarities to the human heart). |
Function of the
Heart Compromise a new summary of the pumping function and regulation of the heart. Here some comparison are made between the human heart, and the deltaV pump. The chapter also give answers to many common questions about the heart, like why we can hear the heart sounds. |
