3-DIMENSIONAL NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES TO MODEL ARTIFICIAL HEART VALVES HEMODYNAMICS
The characterization of the artificial heart valves flow fields is a crucial step to evaluate the performances on improving heart valve engineering. With the advancement of Computational Fluid Dynamics, we are able to study the complex hemodynamics in details such as stagnation, recirculation zones …

Application of passive flow control to mitigate the thromboembolic potential of bileaflet mechanical heart valves: an in-vitro study
Implantation of a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) continues to be associated with risk of thromboembolic complications despite anti-coagulation therapy. Mechanical heart valves have been the gold standard in valve heart replacement since the 1950s with BMHVs currently still being the valve …
