  2. Circulatory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulatory_system

    The systemic circulation is a circuit loop that delivers oxygenated blood from the left heart to the rest of the body, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the right heart via large veins known as the venae cavae. The systemic circulation can also be defined as two parts – a macrocirculation and a microcirculation.

    Circulation (physics), the path integral of the fluid velocity around a closed curve in a fluid flow field; Circulatory system, a biological organ system whose primary function is to move substances to and from cells; Circulation problem, a generalization of network flow problems; Circulation (architecture), the flow of people through a building

  4. Circulation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulation_(physics)

    The circulation Γ of a vector field V around a closed curve C is the line integral: [3] [4] =. In a conservative vector field this integral evaluates to zero for every closed curve. That means that a line integral between any two points in the field is independent of the path taken.

  5. Coronary circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_circulation

    Coronary circulation is the circulation of blood in the arteries and veins that supply the heart muscle (myocardium). Coronary arteries supply oxygenated blood to the heart muscle. Cardiac veins then drain away the blood after it has been deoxygenated.

  6. Atmospheric circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_circulation

    Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air and together with ocean circulation is the means by which thermal energy is redistributed on the surface of the Earth. The Earth's atmospheric circulation varies from year to year, but the large-scale structure of its circulation remains fairly constant.

    Circulation is the original meaning of the "C" as laid down by Jude, Knickerbocker & Safar, and was intended to suggest assessing the presence or absence of circulation, usually by taking a carotid pulse, before taking any further treatment steps.

  9. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

    The micro-circulation — the arterioles, capillaries, and venules —constitutes most of the area of the vascular system and is the site of the transfer of O 2, glucose, and enzyme substrates into the cells.
