Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a rapidly growing field enabling
replacement of diseased aortic valves without the need for open heart surgery. However …

Valvular heart disease (VHD) is a major cause of loss of physical function, quality of life and
longevity, and its prevalence is growing worldwide due to increased survival rates and an …

Valvular heart diseases (such as stenosis and regurgitation) are recognized as a rapidly
growing cause of global deaths and major contributors to disability. The most effective …

The low durability of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV), between 10-15 years, is associated
with the development of leaflets flutter. Despite increasing calcification and structural …

Although it is associated with the low lifetime of aortic valve bioprostheses, flutter has little
been studied in the dynamics of these valves. To improve the understanding of flutter in …

In this paper, the case of the power dependence between strain and stress is studied, along
with the way in which this dependence modifies the calculation methodologies and the …

This study is concerned with the Wheatley design of the mitral valve. A mathematical
description, in terms of elementary functions, is provided for the S-shaped leaflets. This is …

Systematic in vivo validations of computational models of the aortic valve remain scarce,
despite successful validation against in vitro data. Utilizing a combination of computed …

Despite recent advances in the computational modeling of cardiovascular diseases and
therapies, the effect of post-ischemic remodeling has not been thoroughly studied while …

The article is devoted to the implementation of the coupling algorithm of 0D-3D blood flow
model in newborns with a modified Blalock-Taussig shunt. 0D model describes overall …
