Computational Methods

Fluid Structure Interaction
We use Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) to account for the deformation of artery walls under the action of blood flow and describe the behavior of heart valves.
Optimization and Uncertainty
We develop methods to efficiently explore medical device designs and estimate the uncertainty related to cardiovascular simulation parameters.
Reduced Order Modeling
Reduced Order Models are cheap models that can quickly estimate bulk quantities (e.g., average pressure and flow rate) at a fraction of the cost of full three-dimensional simulations.
