svMultiPhysics: a finite element-based solver for cardiovascular simulations
David Codoni, Sujal Dave, David W. Parker +10
Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States, motivating extensive efforts to improve its diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Over the past decade, compu…
Comparative analysis of resistive immersed surface and immersed boundary methods for aortic valve simulation
Han Zhao, Alexander D. Kaiser, Fanwei Kong +5
Numerical modeling of aortic valve dynamics is essential for understanding the complex fluid-structure interaction (FSI) governing valve biomechanics in health and disease. Immerse…
Cardiac mechanics modeling: recent developments and current challenges
Aaron L. Brown, Ju Liu, Daniel B. Ennis +1
Patient-specific computational models of the heart are powerful tools for cardiovascular research and medicine, with demonstrated applications in treatment planning, device evaluat…
A Fluid-Structure Interaction Model of the Zebrafish Aortic Valve
Alexander D. Kaiser, Jing Wang, Aaron L. Brown +3
The zebrafish is a valuable model organism for studying cardiac development and diseases due to its many shared aspects of genetics and anatomy with humans and ease of experimental…
