Mathematical and numerical modelling of the cardiovascular system is a research topic that
has attracted remarkable interest from the mathematical community because of its intrinsic …

Finite element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are generally
insufficient independently to model the physics of the cardiovascular system. Individually …

We propose a mathematical and numerical model for the simulation of the heart function that
couples cardiac electrophysiology, active and passive mechanics and hemodynamics, and …

Mathematical and numerical modelling of the human cardiovascular system has attracted
remarkable research interest due to its intrinsic mathematical difficulty and the increasing …

In order to simulate the cardiac function for a patient‐specific geometry, the generation of the
computational mesh is crucially important. In practice, the input is typically a set of …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an important tool for the simulation of the
cardiovascular function and dysfunction. Due to the complexity of the anatomy, the …

We analyse the haemodynamics of the left atrium, highlighting differences between healthy
individuals and patients affected by atrial fibrillation. The computational study is based on …

Purpose In this work we performed an imaged-based computational study of the systolic
fluid dynamics in presence of mitral valve regurgitation (MVR). In particular, we compared …

We introduce a multiphysics and geometric multiscale computational model, suitable to
describe the hemodynamics of the whole human heart, driven by a four-chamber …

We present a new computational model for the numerical simulation of blood flow in the
human left heart. To this aim, we use the Navier-Stokes equations in an Arbitrary Lagrangian …
