Mechanical heart valves are vital in restoring cardiac function in patients with valvular disease, and their performance is intimately linked to fluid dynamic phenomena. In these devices, complex flow ...

Computational methods are routinely used to solve fluid flow problems in academia and industry, alike. At Northwestern, cutting-edge and novel Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are ...

Pericardial effusion is the medical term for fluid buildup in the space around the heart. Treatment can depend on what is causing the fluid to build up. The fluid appears between the membrane sac ...

Gain insight into fluid dynamics through numerical simulation. Go beyond theoretical analysis and experimental measurements with the power of reliable computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and heat ...
