HSP

A simulink model of human cardiovascular system

HSP (Heart-Systemic-Pulmonary) is a mathematical model which simulates human cardiovascular system.

It is from a project of my master degree thesis. The aim of this project is to develop a multi-purpose simulation program for human cardiovascular research. I started from the classical WindKessel model and then developed the model further by my knowledge of transmission lines, simulation program, etc.

There was a PHYSBE in history. Now I hope my HSP won't be less successful. So I distribute my simulation program on Internet. Since it is to become a multi-purpose simulation program, it means that researchers from different areas can make use of this model or replace some blocks of it for their own purpose. In that case, the results in this area will be more consistent and comparable in the future. It will also save many development work.

In order to achieve this goal, my simulation program was developed in MATLAB/Simulink system, which is a widely used math software.
