Using the dimension reduction procedure, a one-dimensional model of a periodic blood flow in the artery through a small hole in a thin elastic wall to a spindle-shaped hematoma, is constructed. This model is described by a system of two parabolic and one hyperbolic equations provided with mixed boundary and periodicity conditions. The blood exchange between the artery and the hematoma is expressed by the Kirchhoff transmission conditions. Despite the simplicity, the constructed model allows us to describe the damping of a pulsating blood flow by the hematoma and to determine the condition of its growth. In medicine, the biological object considered is called a false aneurysm.

Asymptotic analysis is applied for obtaining one-dimensional models of the blood flow in narrow, thin-walled, elastic vessels. The models for arteries and veins essentially distinguish from each other, and the reason for this is the structure of their walls, as well as the operationing conditions. Although the obtained asymptotic models are simple, they explain various effects known in medical practice, in particular, describe the mechanism of vein-muscle pumping of blood.

We exploit a two-dimensional model (Ghosh et al. in Q J Mech Appl Math 71(3):349-367, 2018; Kozlov and Nazarov in Dokl Phys 56(11):560-566, 2011, J Math Sci 207(2):249-269, 2015) describing the elastic behavior of the wall of a flexible blood vessel which takes interaction with surrounding muscle tissue and the 3D fluid flow into account. We study time periodic flows in an infinite cylinder with such intricate boundary conditions. The main result is that solutions of this problem do not depend on the period and they are nothing else but the time independent Poiseuille flow. Similar solutions of the Stokes equations for the rigid wall (the no-slip boundary condition) depend on the period and their profile depends on time.

We study scattering on an ultra-low potential in armchair graphene nanorib bon. Using the continuous Dirac model and including a couple of articial waves in the scattering process, described by an augumented scattering matrix, we derive a condition for the existence of a trapped mode. We consider the threshold energies, where the the multiplicity of the continuous spectrum changes and show that a trapped mode may appear for energies slightly less than a thresold and its multiplicity does not exceed one. For energies which are higher than a threshold, there are no trapped modes, provided that the potential is suciently small.
