Abstract

In this paper we suggest the way of choosing suitable boundary conditions in the problem of blood flow in a truncated pipe. This is a model problem in view of a numerical procedure to describe the formation and evolution of arterial aneurysms. We introduce "do nothing" boundary conditions via a variational formulation of the problem and discuss the relevant situations of prescribing either the flux through the pipe or the pressure drop.
