Abstract
The filtration of arterial, venous and capillary blood, and cerebrospinal fluid are investigated using a multiphase poroelastic model for the brain matter based on medical data. The model can be used to describe the healthy brain, the state of a brain with hydrocephalus, and the transition between them which occurs when changing model parameters.
