In the context of aortic hemodynamics, uncertainties affecting blood flow simulations hamper
their translational potential as supportive technology in clinics. Computational fluid dynamics …

Statistical Shape Models (SSMs) are well-established tools for assessing the variability of
3D geometry and for broadening a limited set of shapes. They are widely used in medical …

A detailed study of the effect of coarctation on the blood flow of the thoracic aorta was carried
out by modeling the interaction between blood and the aortic wall. Fluid-structure interaction …

The Modified Blalock Taussig Shunt (MBTS) is one of the most common palliative operations
in case of cyanotic heart diseases. Thus far, the decision on the position, size, and geometry …

A data-driven reduced order model (ROM) based on a proper orthogonal decomposition-
radial basis function (POD-RBF) approach is adopted in this paper for the analysis of blood …

The analysis of mechanobiology of arterial tissues remains an important topic of research for
cardiovascular pathologies evaluation. In the current state of the art, the gold standard to …

Introduction: Patient-specific computational models are a powerful tool for planning
cardiovascular interventions. However, the in vivo patient-specific mechanical properties of …

Background: In the context of a growing demand for the use of in silico models to meet
clinical requests, image-based methods play a crucial role. In this study, we present a …

Ascending aorta simulations provide insight into patient-specific hemodynamic conditions.
Numerous studies have assessed fluid biomarkers which show a potential to aid clinicians …

The impact of the distribution in space of the inlet velocity in the numerical simulations of the
hemodynamics in the thoracic aorta is systematically investigated. A real healthy aorta …
