Given the functional complexities of soft tissues and organs, it is clear that computational
simulations are critical in their understanding and for the rational basis for the development …

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 …

This study presents a deep learning based methodology for both remote sensing and design
of acoustic scatterers. The ability to determine the shape of a scatterer, either in the context …

Abstract Development of tissue engineered scaffolds for cardiac valve replacement is
nearing clinical translation. While much work has been done to characterize mechanical …

Cardiovascular system diseases, as aortic valve stenosis, are the main cause of mortality
and morbidity among patients. There is still a room for enhancement of the diagnostic and …

Genetically modified mouse models provide a versatile and efficient platform to extend our
understanding of the underlying disease processes and evaluate potential treatments for …

During the Ross procedure, an aortic heart valve is replaced by a patient's own pulmonary
valve. The pulmonary autograft subsequently undergoes substantial growth and remodeling …

Code generation technology has been transformative to the field of numerical partial
differential equations (PDEs), allowing domain scientists and engineers to automatically …

Left ventricular myocardial infarction (MI) has broad and debilitating effects on cardiac
function. In many cases, MI leads to ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR), a condition …

Bovine pericardium has been commonly used as leaflets in cardiac valve prosthesis
replacement for decades because of its good short-term hemocompatibility and …
