Prediction of the blood flow characteristics is of utmost importance for understanding the behavior of the blood arterial network, especially in the presence of vascular diseases such as stenosis. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has…
Accurate assessment of intraventricular blood flow is essential for evaluating hemodynamic conditions in patients supported by Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs). However, clinical imaging is either incompatible with LVADs or yields…
We propose an arterial network model based on 1D blood hemodynamic equations to study the behavior of different vascular surgical bypass grafts in case of an arterial occlusive pathology: an obliteration or stenosis of the iliac artery. We…
Simulations of coronary hemodynamics have improved non-invasive clinical risk stratification and treatment outcomes for coronary artery disease, compared to relying on anatomical imaging alone. However, simulations typically use empirical…
Non-particulate continuum descriptions allow for computationally efficient modeling of suspension flows at scales that are inaccessible to more detailed particulate approaches. It is well known that the presence of particles influences the…
An arteriovenous fistula, created by artificially connecting segments of a patient's vasculature, is the preferred way to gain access to the bloodstream for kidney dialysis. The increasing power and availability of supercomputing…
A method is proposed to estimate the velocity field of an unsteady flow using a limited number of flow measurements. The method is based on a non-linear low-dimensional model of the flow and on expanding the velocity field in terms of…
Intracardiac flow patterns are shaped by the coupled motion of the cardiac chambers and heart valves and provide important information about cardiac function. However, clinical flow imaging remains limited by exam times, noise, resolution,…
Spatial patterns of elevated wall shear stress and pressure due to blood flow past aortic stenosis (AS) are studied using GPU-accelerated patient-specific computational fluid dynamics. Three cases of moderate AS, one with a dilated…
This paper reports on the derivation and implementation of a shape optimization procedure for the minimization of hemolysis induction in biomedical devices. Hemolysis is a blood damaging phenomenon that may occur in mechanical…
Currently, it is challenging to investigate aneurismal hemodynamics based on current in-vivo data such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging or Computed Tomography due to the limitations in both spatial and temporal resolutions. In this work, we…
As the heart beats, it creates fluctuation in blood pressure leading to a pulse wave that propagates by displacing the arterial wall. These waves travel through the arterial tree and carry information about the medium that they propagate…
In this paper, we focus on investigating the influence on hydrodynamic factors of different coupled computational models describing the interaction between an incompressible fluid and two symmetric elastic or poroelastic structures. The…
A method is presented for the registration of MRA and 4D Flow images, with the goal of calculating blood flow properties using both modalities simultaneously. In particular, the method produces an alignment of segmentations of vessel…
In this work, we introduce an algorithmic approach to generate microvascular networks starting from larger vessels that can be reconstructed without noticeable segmentation errors. Contrary to larger vessels, the reconstruction of…
In this work, we propose a novel approach which combines ultrasound with Eulerian and Lagrangian descriptors, to analyse blood flow dynamics and fluid transport in stenotic aortic models with morphology, mechanical and optical properties…
The work analyzes a one-dimensional viscoelastic model of blood vessel growth under nonlinear friction with surroundings, and provides numerical simulations for various growing cases. For the nonlinear differential equations, two sufficient…
We present a new method for modeling tissue perfusion on the capillary scale. The microvasculature is represented by a network of one-dimensional vessel segments embedded in the extra-vascular space. Vascular and extra-vascular space…
Image-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as a powerful tool to study cardiovascular flows while 2D echocardiography (echo) is the most widely used non-invasive imaging modality for diagnosis of heart disease. Here, echo is…
When a blood vessel ruptures or gets inflamed, the human body responds by rapidly forming a clot to restrict the loss of blood. Platelets aggregation at the injury site of the blood vessel occurring via platelet-platelet adhesion, tethering…
