Mathematical and numerical modelling of the human cardiovascular system has attracted remarkable research interest due to its intrinsic mathematical difficulty and the increasing …
Even though the mechanical heart valve (MHV) has been used routinely in clinical practice for over 60 years, the occurrence of serious complications such as blood clotting remains to …
In this paper, we propose a full computational framework to simulate the hemodynamics in the aorta including the valve. Closed and open valve surfaces, as well as the lumen aorta …

Aortic valves with bicuspids have two rather than three leaflets, which is a congenital heart condition. About 0.5–2% of people have a bicuspid aortic valve. Blood flow through the aorta …
LifeV is a library for the finite element (FE) solution of partial differential equations in one, two, and three dimensions. It is written in C++ and designed to run on diverse parallel …
The aim of this paper is to assess the association between valve morphology and vortical structures quantitatively and to highlight the influence of valve morphology/orientation on …
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be seen as complementary tool alongside the visualization capabilities of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and computed …
