TL;DR: Numerical experiments for fluid structure interaction (FSI) problems involving complex 3D rigid bodies undergoing large structural displacements suggest that both the properties of the structure and local flow conditions can play an important role in determining the stability of the FSI algorithm.

TL;DR: The overall levels of the viscous stresses are apparently too low to induce damage to red blood cells, but could potentially damage platelets, and it is shown that the so-called Reynolds shear stresses neither directly contribute to the mechanical load on blood cells nor is a proper measurement of the mechanical Load experienced by blood cells.

TL;DR: This study investigated the effect of increased flow residence time (RT) by modeling passive scalar advection in the same aneurysmal geometries and found a significant relationship between regions where CFD predicted either an increased RT or low WSS and the regions where thrombus deposition was observed to occur in vivo.

TL;DR: In this study, patient-specific computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models of blood flow were constructed from MRA data for three patients who had fusiform basilar aneurysms that were thrombus free and then proceeded to develop intralumenalThrombus.

TL;DR: This paper constructed personalized computational models of the left ventricles of five normal human subjects using magnetic resonance images and the finite-element method to construct reference maps of normal ventricular wall stress in humans that could serve as a target for in silico optimization studies of existing and potential new treatments for heart failure.
