Three-dimensional model of the human cranium. Deformation occurs along the upper surface of the lateral ventricle wall, highlighted in red. The blood flow waveform in the basilar artery, bottom graph, was used as a boundary condition for pulsatile CSF flow; described in Methods section. Circular cross sections a, b, and c in the ventricular system indicate locations where the Womersley numbers were calculated.
