On the metric graph model for flows in tubular nanostructures

Abstract
A metric graph model is suggested for the Stokes flow concentrated in the vicinity of a network embedded in R3. As a basic problem, we consider the case corresponding to strong variation of the viscosity and density in a cylinder of small radius. An equation for the main term of the asymptotics is obtained. As for a graph structure, coupling conditions are assumed at the graph vertices.
