Aortic aneurysm is a cardiovascular disease related to the alteration of the aortic tissue. It is
an important cause of death in developed countries, especially for older patients. The …

In this work, a lumped‐parameter Windkessel model of the cardiovascular system that
simulates biomechanical parameters of the human physiology is presented. The object …

Abstract A hybrid Windkessel-Womersley (WK-W) coupled mathematical model for the study
of pulsatile blood flow in the arterial system is proposed in this article. The model consists of …

Estimation of aortic and left ventricular (LV) pressure usually requires measurements that
are difficult to acquire during the imaging required to obtain concurrent LV dimensions …

Background Different mechanisms have been proposed to relate atrial fibrillation (AF) and
coronary flow impairment, even in absence of relevant coronary artery disease (CAD) …

Goal: Fractional-order Windkessel model is proposed to describe the aortic input
impedance. Compared with the conventional arterial Windkessel, the main advantage of the …

In this paper, a novel heart valve model with parameters selections enabling to illustrate
some physiological patterns such as healthy, aortic stenosis, and regurgitation has been …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) consequences on the heart valve dynamics are usually studied along
with a valvular disfunction or disease, since in medical monitoring, the two pathologies are …

Background and objective: Mathematical modeling and computational simulations of arterial
blood flow network can offer an insilico platform for both diagnostics and therapeutic phases …

Systematic in vivo validations of computational models of the aortic valve remain scarce,
despite successful validation against in vitro data. Utilizing a combination of computed …
