The emergence of new cardiac diagnostics and therapeutics of the heart has given rise to
the challenging field of virtual design and testing of technologies in a patient-specific …

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cardiovascular disease. Early diagnosis
of CAD's physiological significance is of utmost importance for guiding individualized risk …

A detailed study of the effect of coarctation on the blood flow of the thoracic aorta was carried
out by modeling the interaction between blood and the aortic wall. Fluid-structure interaction …

The aim of this study is to understand the relationship between blood flow and vascular
mechanics in stenotic and healthy arteries and use this understanding to improve the …

One of the relevant phenomenon associated with in-stent restenosis in coronary arteries is
an altered haemodynamics in the stented region. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) offers …

Arterial hemodynamics is markedly characterized by the presence of helical flow patterns.
Previous observations suggest that arterial helical blood flow is of physiological significance …

Wall shear stress (WSS) has been shown to be associated with myocardial infarction (MI)
and progression of atherosclerosis. Wall elasticity is an important feature of hemodynamic …

Abstract Background and Objective In this paper we investigate twelve multi-
directional/topological wall shear stress (WSS) derived metrics and their relationships with …

Atherosclerosis is the primary cause of cardiovascular disease, resulting in mortality,
elevated healthcare costs, diminished productivity, and reduced quality of life for individuals …

Hemodynamic parameters have been identified as a significant determinant in the
development and progression of plaque, which leads to coronary artery disease (CAD). This …
