This is a Simulink project to model the human arteries using digital circuit components. The model prototypes the reported circuit diagram for the human vessels in [1] but with delays, adders, and multipliers blocks. These blocks are conceived to be later implemented in FPGA.
The project runs directly from the file Noordegraaf_FPGA.slx. All the coeficients for digital design are evaluated in the init_fcn_noordergraaf_FPGA.mlx file. All the graphs are plotted in the stop_fcn_noordegraaf_FPGA.mlx file.
All the electric parameters from the original design in [1] are included in the excel document Parameters.xlsx, which follow the International System of Units (SI).
Files provided here are the following:
  • Simulink Project "Noordegraaf_FPGA.slx": Runs the project and self call dependencies as the .m files.
  • File to initiate all the electric parameters in the project: init_fcn_noordergraaf_FPGA.mlx and reading the parameters from the table Parameters.xlsx.
  • File to plot results after running the simulink project: stop_fcn_noordegraaf_FPGA.mlx.
