Book Dimension Reduced Modeling of Blood Flow in Large Arteries

Download or read book Dimension Reduced Modeling of Blood Flow in Large Arteries written by Tobias Köppl and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph contains an in-depth and coherent treatment of dimension-reduced modeling of blood flows on the level of large vessels (macrocirculation). The authors reduce the complexity by combining a one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation and a simplified FSI-concept. The influence of omitted vessels, which are subsequent to the outlets of larger vessels, is accounted for by systems of ordinary differential equations (0D models). The target audience primarily comprises research experts in the field of biomedical engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students alike.

Book Mathematical Modeling of Blood Flow Through Stenosed Arteries

Download or read book Mathematical Modeling of Blood Flow Through Stenosed Arteries written by Mohammed Musad and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In mathematical bio-sciences we study the applications of mathematical modeling and mathematical techniques to get an insight into the problems of bio-sciences. The mathematical model is a comprehensive process of representing real Phenomena in terms of Mathematical Equations, and extracting from them useful information for understanding and predicting the process of idealization. The study of blood flow characteristics in human circulatory system in the presence of stenosis, has been the subject of researchers in recent years. A serious study of this problem has been done by Young 1968 who presented a mathematical model to analyses theoretically the effects of stenosis on flow characteristics of blood and concluded that the resistance to the flow and the wall shear stress increase with the increase in stenosis size. The blood flow through large arteries considered as Newtonian flow by Lee JS 1974. while the blood flow through small arteries is considered as non-Newtonian by Chan et all 2007.

Book Biological Flow in Large Vessels

Download or read book Biological Flow in Large Vessels written by Valerie Deplano and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-06-28 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines recent methods used for blood flow modeling and associated in vivo experiments, conducted using experimental data from medical imaging. Different strategies are proposed, from smallscale models to complex 3D modeling using modern computational codes. The geometries are wide-ranging and deal with the narrowing and widening of sections (stenoses, aneurysms), bifurcations, geometries associated with prosthetic elements, and even cases of vessels with smaller dimensions than those of the blood cells circulating in them. Biological Flow in Large Vessels provides answers to the question of how medical and biomechanical knowledge can be combined to address clinical problems. It offers guidance for further development of numerical models, as well as experimental protocols applied to clinical research, with tools that can be used in real-time and at the patient’s bedside, for decision-making support, predicting the progression of pathologies, and planning personalized interventions.

Book Analysis and Sensitivity Study of Zero dimensional Modeling of Human Blood Circulation Network

Download or read book Analysis and Sensitivity Study of Zero dimensional Modeling of Human Blood Circulation Network written by Roussel Rahman and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The systemic circulation has a large number of vessels; therefore, 3-D simulation of pulse-wave propagation in the entire cardiovascular system is difficult and computationally expensive. Zero-Dimensional (Zero-D) and One-Dimensional (1-D) models are simplified representations of the cardiovascular network; they can be coupled as supplements to regional 3-D models for closed-loop multi-scale studies or be simulated as self-sufficient representations of the blood-flow network. Unlike Zero-D models, 1-D models can provide linear space-wise information for the vessels. However, Zero-D models can prove to be more useful in particular cases; as flexibility in adjusting parameters facilitate in tailoring the model to specific needs. A prevalent reservation regarding the Zero-D models has been the inconsistency of parameter adjustment. A primary objective of this work is to build a closed loop cardiovascular model with a consistent, easily replicable methodology so that the model (1) can be adopted in multi-scale studies and (2) can provide a quick clinical tool for patient-specific studies. Fifty-five large arteries were represented individually and the rest of the cardiovascular network was lumped into several equivalent components. This way, arbitrary parameter adjustments have been restricted to the microcirculation and venous sections only. The model was validated by comparing simulated hemodynamic properties with clinical measurements and simulations from a comparable 1-D model. The Zero-D simulations have been shown to be in excellent agreement with the 1-D predictions, despite their discrete nature in space being contrary to linearly continuous 1-D counterpart. An advantageous characteristic of the developed model is the retention of physiological definitions, especially for the arterial network. Therefore, the model can be conveniently modified for patient-specific simulations. The generality of the method and closed-loop nature of the model also allow to inquisitively study various mathematical assumptions in blood flow modeling and experimental techniques. As an example, a possible source of non-physiological wave reflections has been studied in this thesis. The developed Zero-D model was found to be quite sensitive to the diastolic function of the left ventricle (LV). Therefore, several aspects of the mathematical modeling of ventricular elastance and LV-aorta coupling have been investigated in terms of measured responses from a healthy heart. Moreover, a few conventional assumptions of Zero-D modeling have been studied and found to be quite accurate with respect to 1-D simulations. Finally, the scopes for future studies and suitability of the model to certain applications have been discussed.

Book Simulation of 3 D Blood Flow in the Full Systemic Arterial Tree and Computational Frameworks for Efficient Parameter Estimation

Download or read book Simulation of 3 D Blood Flow in the Full Systemic Arterial Tree and Computational Frameworks for Efficient Parameter Estimation written by Nan Xiao and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational methods for simulating blood flow have become powerful tools to gain insight into the physical behavior of the cardiovascular system in health and disease. This work is aimed at developing computational tools and models for the investigation of age-related arterial stiffening and its relationship to the underlying hemodynamics. Due to the complex geometry and spatially-varying material properties of the central arteries, and the hemodynamics therein, large-scale three-dimensional computational models of arterial mechanics can improve our ability to interpret current clinical hemodynamic metrics and to advance our fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of disease progression. We have built a novel computational model of fully three-dimensional and unsteady hemodynamics within the primary large arteries in the human systemic circulation from head to legs. We demonstrated that this virtual full body systemic arterial tree is able to reproduce many of the key local and global hemodynamic features of the human arterial circulation and is a promising first step toward further computational analyses of the relationship between blood flow and arterial stiffening. As part of this work, we have tested and implemented an important boundary condition for the arterial fluid-solid interaction problem that mimics the tethering effect of the external tissues and stabilizes simulations in large networks of vessels. The task of efficiently fitting large-scale 3-D models to patient-specific measurements is challenging due to the computational effort required for a single simulation and the number of model parameters involved. We implemented two different computational frameworks for parameter estimation: the first is based on computationally inexpensive one-dimensional analogues of the full 3-D system. The second method is based on sequential data-assimilation techniques, specifically, nonlinear Kalman filtering. We demonstrate that these frameworks may be used to rapidly estimate the parameters of large-scale 3-D models based on clinical measurements of blood flow, pressure, and vessel wall distensibility.

Book Regulation of Tissue Oxygenation  Second Edition

Download or read book Regulation of Tissue Oxygenation Second Edition written by Roland N. Pittman and published by Biota Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This presentation describes various aspects of the regulation of tissue oxygenation, including the roles of the circulatory system, respiratory system, and blood, the carrier of oxygen within these components of the cardiorespiratory system. The respiratory system takes oxygen from the atmosphere and transports it by diffusion from the air in the alveoli to the blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries. The cardiovascular system then moves the oxygenated blood from the heart to the microcirculation of the various organs by convection, where oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the red blood cells and moves to the parenchymal cells of each tissue by diffusion. Oxygen that has diffused into cells is then utilized in the mitochondria to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of all cells. The mitochondria are able to produce ATP until the oxygen tension or PO2 on the cell surface falls to a critical level of about 4–5 mm Hg. Thus, in order to meet the energetic needs of cells, it is important to maintain a continuous supply of oxygen to the mitochondria at or above the critical PO2 . In order to accomplish this desired outcome, the cardiorespiratory system, including the blood, must be capable of regulation to ensure survival of all tissues under a wide range of circumstances. The purpose of this presentation is to provide basic information about the operation and regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, as well as the properties of the blood and parenchymal cells, so that a fundamental understanding of the regulation of tissue oxygenation is achieved.
