Computational flow analysis with boundary layer and contact representation: II. Heart valve flow with leaflet contact
TL;DR: With these ST methods, the challenge of representing the contact between the leaflets without giving up on high-resolution flow representation near the leaflet surfaces has been overcome and the complexities of a near-actual valve geometry are overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling of angioadaptation: insights for vascular development
TL;DR: For the tumor microcirculation, the hypothesis that dysfunctional information transport via vascular connexins is a major cause of the observed vascular pathology and increased heterogeneity in oxygen distribution is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical analysis of extracellular fluid flow and chemical species transport around and within porous bioactive glass
Andrés J. García,Paul Ducheyne +1 more
TL;DR: Schepers et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the effect of interstitial fluid flow on chemical species (Na+, Ca+2, HPO(4)-2) transport outside the granules.

TL;DR: The presented method accurately mimics the preoperative hemodynamic state and can interactively explore the hemodynamics at any vascular tree position, and can provide the surgeon with additional information for preoperative planning.

TL;DR: This study confirms that, on average, division of flow to the middle and anterior cerebral arteries is related to these vessels' relative calibres via a power law, but it is closer to a square law than a cube law as commonly assumed.
