Boundary layer evolution in the myocardial bridge. Illustration of boundary layer separation in a series of two myocardial bridges at a deformation of ζ 0 = 0.2; geometry and boundary layer thickness are displayed in realistic proportions, the velocity profiles are schematically drawn. The inflow profile is uniform with velocity V. We note that the extension of the separation zones differ, because the second myocardial bridge experiences different flow conditions.
