The role of hydrodynamic interactions in the dynamics and viscoelasticity of actin networks
… experimental observation in cytoskeleton mechanics and dynamics. We also propose a new rod method to incorporate the HIs accurately and effectively. This method includes HIs in the larger systems, the same way as typical bead models, but it can decrease the computational cost by up to …

Characterization of the Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Single Cardiovascular Cells
Cardiovascular tissues are exposed to complex strains during the cardiac cycle in vivo. Strains can change as a result of disease and surgical interventions necessitating tissues to mechanoadapt to maintain function. Biomechanical models provide insight into tissue behavior and disease progression …

Fully Coupled Fluid Structure Interaction Simulation of Bioprosthetic Heart Valves: A Numerical and Experimental Analysis
<p>Aortic stenosis impacts approximately 7% of the global population. In the past decade, the role of computational modeling has been becoming considerably important in the design of BHVs. To obtain reliable solutions in computational modeling, it is essential to consider accurate properties of …
