This paper reviews the currently available computational contact formulations within the
framework of isogeometric analysis (IGA). As opposed to conventional Lagrange …

Introduction: Replacement with a prosthetic device remains a major treatment option for the
patients suffering from heart valve disease, with prevalence growing resulting from an …

In this paper, we develop a geometrically flexible technique for computational fluid–structure
interaction (FSI). The motivating application is the simulation of tri-leaflet bioprosthetic heart …

Mathematical modeling of the human heart and its function can expand our understanding of
various cardiac diseases, which remain the most common cause of death in the developed …

This paper builds on a recently developed immersogeometric fluid–structure interaction
(FSI) methodology for bioprosthetic heart valve (BHV) modeling and simulation. It enhances …

Numerous studies have suggested that medical image derived computational mechanics
models could be developed to reduce mortality and morbidity due to cardiovascular …

Computational modeling of heart valve dynamics incorporating both fluid dynamics and
valve structural responses has been challenging. In this study, we developed a novel fully …

In this paper an interactive parametric design-through-analysis platform is proposed to help
design engineers and analysts make more effective use of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) to …

Following a series of recent innovations, isogeometric shell analysis based on trimmed CAD
surfaces is currently being developed into an accurate, efficient and mature design-through …

This paper uses a divergence-conforming B-spline fluid discretization to address the long-
standing issue of poor mass conservation in immersed methods for computational fluid …
