Hemodynamic Performance and Blood Damage of the Intra-Aortic Pumps: A CFD-Based Investigation
Osman Aycan, Yeojin Park, Lyes Kadem
Three intra-aortic blood pumps were evaluated and compared using CFD simulations. The aim of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamic performance and calculate the hemolytic poten…
Three-Dimensional Lagrangian Coherent Structures in Patients with Aortic Regurgitation
Wissam Abdallah, Ahmed Darwish, Julio Garcia +1
Understanding blood transport in cardiovascular flows is important for managing patients with cardiovascular disease. In this study, three-dimensional Lagrangian coherent structure…
Experimental Investigation of Aortic Pressure Variations Following a Simulated Thoracic Impact
Ghassan Maraouch, Curtis H. Horton, Joseph Fanaberia +4
Blunt traumatic aortic rupture is a heart injury that can occur in falls, automobile accidents, and sporting injuries involving impact to the thorax. Despite its severity and high…
Experimental investigation of the flow downstream of a dysfunctional bileaflet mechanical aortic valve
Ahmed Darwish, Giuseppe Di Labbio, Wael Saleh +2
Mechanical heart valve replacement is the preferred alternative in younger patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve disease. However, thrombus and pannus formations are common…
Jet collisions and vortex reversal in the human left ventricle
Giuseppe Di Labbio, Lyes Kadem
Unnatural dynamics of the notorious vortex in the left ventricle is often associated with cardiac disease. Understanding how different cardiac diseases alter the flow physics in th…
