Aortic dissection causes splitting of the aortic wall layers, allowing blood to enter a 'false
lumen'(FL). For type B dissection, a significant predictor of patient outcomes is patency or …

Many important scientific problems are inherently multi scale. This is, for instance, the case
in models in material science or environmental science. A big challenge is to formulate …

Cerebral aneurysms are pathological focal evaginations of the arterial wall at and around
the junctions of the circle of Willis. Their tenuous walls predispose aneurysms to leak or …

Thrombosis and its related events have become a major concern during the development
and optimization of ventricular assist devices (VADs, also called blood pumps), and limit …

Thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR) has recently been established as the preferred
treatment option for complicated type B dissection. This procedure involves covering the …

Thrombosed aneurysms of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) usually show large dimension
and complex morphology with neck sclerosis and perforating vessels originating from the …

In recent years, significant progress in hemorheological modeling has occurred after the
development of constitutive models able to represent the major physical mechanisms that …

Purpose Segmentation of cardiac medical images, an important step in measuring cardiac
function, is usually performed either manually or semiautomatically. Fully automatic …

Fouling is a major problem in gas turbines for aeropropulsion because the formation of
aggregates on the wet surfaces of the machine affects aerodynamic and heat loads. The …

Purpose Low-porosity endovascular stents, known as flow diverters (FDs), have been
proposed as an effective and minimally invasive treatment for sidewall intracranial …
