Recent advances in imaging, modeling, and computing have rapidly expanded our capabilities to model hemodynamics in the large vessels (heart, arteries, and veins). This …
The hemodynamics within the aorta of five healthy humans were investigated to gain insight into the complex helical flow patterns that arise from the existence of asymmetries in the …
The mechanics of blood flow in arteries plays a key role in the health of individuals. In this framework, the role played by the presence of helical flow in the human aorta is still not clear …
The main purpose of the study was to verify if helical flow, widely observed in several vessels, might be a signature of the blood dynamics of vein graft anastomosis. We …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) provides a noninvasive method to functionally assess aortic hemodynamics. The thoracic aorta has an anatomically complex inlet comprising of …
Low and oscillatory wall shear stress (WSS) has long been hypothesized as a risk factor for atherosclerosis; however, evidence has been inferred primarily from model and post-mortem …
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models have become very effective tools for predicting the flow field within the carotid bifurcation, and for understanding the relationship between …
Background: Computational fluid dynamics tools are useful for their ability to model patient specific data relevant to the genesis and progression of atherosclerosis, but unavailable to …
Here we present a study on the impact of assumptions on image-based hemodynamic simulations of healthy carotid bifurcations. In particular, we evaluate to which extent …
