ABSTRACT = {Kinematic and dynamic characteristics of pulsating flow in a model of 
human aortic arch are obtained by a computational analysis. Three-dimensional 
flow processes are summarized by pressure distributions on the symmetric plane 
together with velocity and pressure contours on a few cross sections for systolic 
acceleration and deceleration. Without considering the effects of aortic tapering 
and the carotid arteries, the development of tubular boundary layer with 
centrifugal forces and pulsation are also analyzed for flow separation and 
backflow during systolic deceleration.},
