Abstract

The paper discusses a stabilization of a finite element method for the equations of fluid motion in a time-dependent domain. After experimental convergence analysis, the method is applied to simulate a blood flow in the right ventricle of a post-surgery patient with the transposition of the great arteries disorder. The flow domain is reconstructed from a sequence of 4D CT images. The corresponding segmentation and triangulation algorithms are also addressed in brief.
