The purpose of this study is mainly directed towards present of viewpoints on critical and
commentary analysis on blood rheology, blood viscosity models, and physiological flow …

Patient-specific computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a promising tool that provides highly
resolved haemodynamics information. The choice of blood rheology is an assumption in …

The pulsatile blood flow through human aortic arch and three major branches are
computationally studied to investigate the effect of blood rheology on the hemodynamic …

To investigate the effects of both non-Newtonian behavior and the pulsation of blood flow on
the distributions of luminal surface LDL concentration and oxygen flux along the wall of the …

Background: Patient-specific computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models derived from
medical images often require simplifying assumptions to render the simulations conceptually …

Hemodynamics factors and biomechanical forces play key roles in atherogenesis, plaque
development and final rupture. In this paper, we investigated the flow field and stress field for …

The mechanical heart valve (MHV) is commonly used for the treatment of cardiovascular
diseases. Nonphysiological hemodynamic in the MHV may cause hemolysis, platelet …

Three non-Newtonian blood viscosity models plus the Newtonian one are analysed for a
patient-specific thoracic aorta anatomical model under steady-state flow conditions via wall …

To test the hypothesis that the spiral flow pattern in the human aorta may play a beneficial
role in the transport of oxygen, hence sparing the ascending aorta from atherosclerosis, a …

The paper is devoted to the comparison of one-dimensional models, used for the simulation
of blood flow in elastic vessels. The inviscid, Newtonian, and non-Newtonian models of …
