Computational modeling is emerging as a crucial tool for clinical decision-making and
evaluation of novel surgical methods and interventions in pediatric cardiology and beyond …

Abstract Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of blood flow are widely used to
compute a variety of hemodynamic indicators such as velocity, time-varying wall shear …

SUMMARY A new framework for estimation of lumped (for instance, Windkessel) model
parameters from uncertain clinical measurements is presented. The ultimate aim is to …

A major challenge in constructing three dimensional patient specific hemodynamic models
is the calibration of model parameters to match patient data on flow, pressure, wall motion …

Inverse problems in cardiovascular modelling have become increasingly important to
assess each patient individually. These problems entail estimation of patient-specific model …

This study creates a physiologically realistic virtual patient database (VPD), representing the
human arterial system, for the primary purpose of studying the effects of arterial disease on …

We propose a fully automated parameter estimation framework for performing patient-
specific hemodynamic computations in arterial models. To determine the personalized …

We present a new approach for the outflow boundary conditions of Navier–Stokes equations
in hemodynamics. We first describe some existing 3D–0D coupling methods and highlight …

Numerical simulations of the blood flow inside a patient-specific thoracic aorta in presence
of coarctation are considered. Different grades of severity of the coarctation are obtained by …

Single ventricle heart defects involve pathologies in which the heart has only one functional
pumping chamber. In these conditions, treatment consists of three staged procedures. At …
