Abstract
The major objective of this thesis is to produce a desired pressure waveform in an artifical circulation system by using a Z-80 microcomputer controlled stepper motor. This will simulate the desired blood pressure waveform in the human body and can be used for clinical application.
A microcomputer simulation was used for setting up an electrical circuit model to represent the artificial circulation system as well as for finding out the relationship between motor speed (piston displacement) and pressure waveform.
Using this techniques, a desired pressure waveform which represents the blood pressure waveform in the human body can be obtained.
