Generation of Patient-specific Structured Hexahedral Mesh of Aortic Aneurysm Wall
Farah Alkhatib, George C. Bourantas, Adam Wittek +1
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) is an enlargement in the lower part of the main artery Aorta by 1.5 times its normal diameter. AAA can cause death if rupture occurs. Elective surge…
Immersed boundary finite element method for blood flow simulation
G. C. Bourantas, D. L. Lampropoulos, B. F. Zwick +3
We present an efficient and accurate immersed boundary (IB) finite element (FE) solver for numerically solving incompressible Navier--Stokes equations. Particular emphasis is given…
Simple and robust element-free Galerkin method with interpolating shape functions for finite deformation elasticity
George Bourantas, Benjamin F. Zwick, Grand Joldes +2
In this paper, we present a meshless method belonging to the family of element-free Galerkin (EFG) methods. The distinguishing feature of the presented meshless method is that it a…
Biomechanical modeling and computer simulation of the brain during neurosurgery
K. Miller, G. R. Joldes, G. Bourantas +4
Computational biomechanics of the brain for neurosurgery is an emerging area of research recently gaining in importance and practical applications. This review paper presents the c…
Suite of Meshless Algorithms for Accurate Computation of Soft Tissue Deformation for Surgical Simulation
Grand Joldes, George Bourantas, Benjamin Zwick +7
The ability to predict patient-specific soft tissue deformations is key for computer-integrated surgery systems and the core enabling technology for a new era of personalized medic…
