Mathematical models are widely recognized as a valuable tool for cardiovascular diagnosis and the study of circulatory diseases, especially to obtain data that require otherwise invasive measurements. To correctly simulate body…
This paper presents a spline-based hexahedral mesh generator for tubular geometries commonly encountered in haemodynamics studies, in particular coronary arteries. We focus on techniques for accurately meshing vessels with stenoses and…
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation provides valuable information on blood flow from the vascular geometry. However, it requires extracting precise models of arteries from low-resolution medical images, which remains challenging.…
We propose a computational framework for vascular fluid-structure interaction (FSI), focusing on biomechanical modeling, geometric modeling, and solver technology. The biomechanical model is constructed based on the unified continuum…

Image-based modeling is essential for understanding cardiovascular hemodynamics and advancing the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Constructing patient-specific vascular models remains labor-intensive, error-prone, and…
We present a two dimensional model describing the elastic behaviour of the wall of a curved blood vessel. The wall has a laminate structure consisting of several anisotropic layers of varying thickness and is assumed to be much smaller in…
This paper presents a new method for modeling the mechanics of the aortic valve, and simulates its interaction with blood. As much as possible, the model construction is based on first principles, but such that the model is consistent with…
Most machine learning-based coronary artery segmentation methods represent the vascular lumen surface in an implicit way by the centerline and the associated lumen radii, which makes the subsequent modeling process to generate a whole piece…
It has long been recognized that aortic root elasticity helps to ensure efficient aortic valve closure, but our understanding of the functional importance of the elasticity and geometry of the aortic root continues to evolve as increasingly…
Pulmonary hypertension is a cardiovascular disorder manifested by elevated arterial blood pressure together with vessel wall stiffening and thickening due to alterations in collagen, elastin and smooth muscle cells. Hypoxia-induced (type 3)…
The development and progression of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are related to complex flow patterns and wall-shear-driven mechanobiological stimuli, yet the quantitative relationship between aneurysmal geometry and hemodynamics remains…
Deviation of blood flow from an optimal range is known to be associated with the initiation and progression of vascular pathologies. Important open questions remain about how the abnormal flow drives specific wall changes in pathologies…
Generating computational anatomical models of cerebrovascular networks is vital for improving clinical practice and understanding brain oxygen transport. This is achieved by extracting graph-based representations based on pre-mapping of…
