The fluid-structure interaction during blood flow in a . . . Fluid–structure interaction simulations outperform computational fluid dynamics in the description of thoracic aorta haemodynamics and in the differentiation of progressive dilation in Marfan syndrome patients
Flow Dynamics in the Aortic Arch and Its Effect on the . . . The objective of this study is to use computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations in a patient-specific model of the aorta to investigate the validity of using the TDC at the descending aorta as a surrogate for the AIF at the coronary ostia
Fluid–structure interaction simulations outperform . . . Compared to CFD, FSI simulations showed significantly lower percentage errors in ascending and descending aorta in flow displacement (−46% ascending, −41% descending), jet angle (−28% ascending, −50% descending) and maximum velocity (−37% ascending, −34% descending) with respect to 4D flow MRI
Optimizing the Assessment of Aortic Regurgitation: Assessing the severity of aortic regurgitation (AR) is critical for clinical management but can be difficult, particularly when differentiating moderate from severe aortic regurgitation
A Pilot Study Characterizing Flow Patterns in the Thoracic . . . Differences in TAWSS and OSI were driven by local morphological differences and cardiac output For example, the model for one twin had a more pronounced proximal descending aorta in the vicinity of the ductus ligamentum that impacted WSS indices relative to the other
