Abstract
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a symmetric flow transport that surrounds brain and central nervous system (CNS). Congenital hydrocephalusis is an asymmetric and unusual cerebrospinal fluid flow during fetal development. This dumping impact enhances the elasticity over the ventricle wall. Henceforth, compression change influences the force of brain tissues. This paper presents a mathematical model to establish the effects of ventricular elasticity through a porous channel. The current model is good enough for immediate use by a neurosurgeon. The mathematical model is likely to be a powerful tool for the better treatment of hydrocephalus and other brain biomechanics. The non-linear dimensionless governing equations are solved using a perturbation technique, and the outcome is portrayed graphically with the aid of MATLAB.
