RISVortex Shedding as a Mechanism for Free Emboli Formation in Mechanical Heart Valves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The high incidence of thromboembolic complications of mechanical heart valves (MHV) limits their success as permanent implants. The thrombogenicity of all MHV is primarily due to platelet activation ...
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Risk of Rupture: Patient-Specific FSI Simulations Using Anisotropic Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture represents a major cardiovascular risk, combining complex vascular mechanisms weakening the abdominal artery wall coupled with hemodynamic forces exerted on ...
Comparison of the Hemodynamic and Thrombogenic Performance of Two Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valves Using a CFD/FSI Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The hemodynamic and the thrombogenic performance of two commercially available bileaflet mechanical heart valves (MHVs)—the ATS Open Pivot Valve (ATS) and the St. Jude Regent Valve (SJM), was ...
Fluid Structure Interaction With Contact Surface Methodology for Evaluation of Endovascular Carotid Implants for Drug-Resistant Hypertension Treatment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Drug-resistant hypertensive patients may be treated by mechanical stimulation of stretch-sensitive baroreceptors located in the sinus of carotid arteries. To evaluate the efficacy of endovascular ...
