Background Zero-dimensional (lumped parameter) and one dimensional models, based on
simplified representations of the components of the cardiovascular system, can contribute …

Due to the large number of vessels involved and the multitude of different length scales
required to accurately represent the flow in the various regions of the cardiovascular system …

In the present work a computational model of the entire closed cardiovascular system is
established. This model stands for the integration of different levels of circulation. Indeed, the …

Abstract Three‐dimensional (3D) cardiovascular fluid dynamics simulations typically require
hours to days of computing time on a high‐performance computing cluster. One …

Patient-specific cardiovascular simulations can provide clinicians with predictive tools, fill
current gaps in clinical imaging capabilities, and contribute to the fundamental …

Abstract One-dimensional (1D) modeling is a powerful tool for studying haemodynamics;
however, a comprehensive 1D model representing the entire cardiovascular system is …

High-fidelity blood flow modelling is crucial for enhancing our understanding of
cardiovascular disease. Despite significant advances in computational and experimental …

Lumped-parameter models (zero-dimensional) and wave-propagation models (one-
dimensional) for pressure and flow in large vessels, as well as fully three-dimensional fluid …

Cardiovascular diseases have a major impact in Western countries. Mathematical models
and numerical simulations can aid the understanding of physiological and pathological …

Several lumped parameter, or zero-dimensional (0-D), models of the microcirculation are
coupled in the time domain to the nonlinear, one-dimensional (1-D) equations of blood flow …
