Popis: We discuss propagation of traveling waves in a blood filled elastic artery with an axially symmetric dilatation (an idealized aneurysm). The processes in the injured artery are modelled by equations for the motion of the wall of the artery and by equation for the motion of the fluid (the blood). For the case when long-wave approximation holds the model equations are reduced to a version of the perturbed Korteweg-deVries equation. Exact travelling-wave solutions of this equation are obtained by the modified method of simplest equation where the differential equation of Abel is used as a simplest equation. A particular case of the obtained exact solution is discussed from the point of view of arterial mechanics.
