Model Selection and Coupling in the Context of Biomedical Device Design

International Conference on Computational Methods for Coupled Problems in Science and Engineering (COUPLED PROBLEMS)

Abstract

Modeling and computational analysis play an increasingly important role in bioengineering, particularly in the design of implantable ventricular assist devices (VAD), coronary stents, and other blood-handling devices.Numerical simulation of blood flow and associated physiological phenomena has the potential to shorten the design cycle and give the designers important insights into causes of blood damage and suboptimal performance.
