Preface
This book contains a selection of the contributions presented at MPF2013 in June 2013 in Chia Laguna (Sardinia), the fifth edition of a series devoted to the mathematical and numerical modeling of physiological flows. The focus of this fifth symposium was on data analysis, digital imaging, mathematical models, and numerical simulation of the human circulatory system as a whole, and more specifically on cardiac mechanics and electrophysiology, heart perfusion, ventricular fluid dynamics, fluid-vessel wall interactions, multiscale analysis of blood rheology in small vessels, and system integration. The contributions presented in this book provide a very interesting o
