Abstract
This investigation describes steady, laminar, and fully developed blood flow velocity and rotation fields in the rigid femoral artery using Cosserat continuum mechanics approach. The governing filed equations are derived and solution to the Hagen-Poiseuilli flow of a COSSERAT fluid in the artery is obtained analytically by Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) and numerically using finite difference method. Comparison of analytic results with numeric ones showed excellent agreement.
