Abstract This paper concerns the fluid-mechanical study of the effects of permeability of the wall of an arteriosclerotic blood vessel by idealizing the tissue space as a porous medium bounding the blood vessel and the arteriosclerotic blood vessel as a constricted axisymetric tube of slowly but arbitrarily varying cross-secton. An analytical solution in the general case is obtained by perturbation technique and several important particular geometries of constriction are discussed as special cases. Numerical results for the effects of permeability on the wall shear stress and filtration velocity are shown graphically.
