Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
During the last few decades, continuum mechanics has been used to furnish several powerful instruments, which were then demonstrated to be useful for capturing the behavior of real physical phenomena involved, for example, in industry, dynamic populations, economics, biology and medicine.
Biofluid mechanics is, in fact, an area of research that furnishes challenges such as in describing complex fluids, studying time dependent problems, modeling specific geometries and developing devices. Modeling the motion of biological fluids can be an important resource for understanding, simulating and exploring cardiovascular, renal, lymphatic and respiratory systems as well as of flying animals or flows of swimmers.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect manuscripts concerning analytical, experimental or computational studies related to continuum mechanical models of biofluids in humans and animals. We are looking at studies related to blood and lymph modelitation, simulation in pathological situations or the presence of medical devices. Moreover, papers dealing with any other field related to biological application are also welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
