Abstract:

In order to simulate cellular blood, a coarse-grained spectrin-link (SL) red blood cell (RBC) membrane model is coupled with a lattice-Boltzmann (LB) based suspension solver. The LB method resolves the hydrodynamics governed by the Navier--Stokes equations while the SL method accurately models the deformation of RBCs under numerous configurations. This method has been parallelized using Message Passing Interface (MPI) protocols for the simulation of dense suspensions of RBCs characteristic of whole blood on world-class computing resources. Simulations were performed to study rheological effe

Abstract:

Background. Extensive studies have been conducted to simulate blood flow in the human vasculature using nonlinear equations of pulsatile flow in collapsible tube plus a network of vessels to represent the whole vasculature and the cerebral circulation. For non-linear models numerical solutions are obtained for the fluid flow equations. Methods. Equations of fluid motion in collapsible tubes were developed in the presence of gravitational force (Gforce). The Lax-Wendroff and MacCormack methods were used to solve the governing equations and compared both in terms of accuracy, convergence, and co

Abstract:

Fluid mechanics of blood can be well approximated by a mixture model of a Newtonian fluid and deformable particles representing the red blood cells. Experimental and theoretical evidence suggests that the deformation and rheology of red blood cells is similar to that of phospholipid vesicles. Vesicles and red blood cells are both area preserving closed membranes that resist bending. Beyond red blood cells, vesicles can be used to investigate the behavior of cell membranes, intracellular organelles, and viral particles. Given the importance of vesicle flows, in this thesis we focus in efficient

Abstract:

Blood flow rheology is a complex phenomenon, and the study of blood flow in the human body system under normal and pathological conditions are considered to be of great importance in biomedical engineering. Consequently, it is important to identify the key parameters that influence the flow behaviour of blood. The characterisation of blood flow will also enable us to understand the flow parameters associated with physiological conditions such as atherosclerosis. Thrombosis plays a crucial role in stopping bleeding when a blood vessel is injured. Developing tools that can successfully study the

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are among the leading causes of death in the world. In this study, an attempt was made to model the flow dynamics of blood in abnormally narrowed artery. Finite volume solver FLUENT was used for the analysis with the aim of understanding the consequences of increasing the degree of stenosis using a two-equation turbulence model. The compliant nature of the artery was neglected, and Newtonian behavior of the blood flow was assumed for the larger arteries. Steady-flow simulations with 75% area reductions were used to establish the validity of the current models by

The commonly used simulation method Field II, which is based on the spatial impulse response approach, has excellent accuracy in linear domain. However the computational time can be up to many days for one simulation. One of the solutions to this problem is a convolution-based methodology called COLE. It is much faster than Field II and has very good approximation. It generates the data by reducing multi-dimensional convolution model to multiple single-dimensional convolutions.

Abstract:

Dementia, a stepwise deterioration of cognitive function, affects over 700,000 people in the UK, resulting in over 60,000 deaths and a cost of over £1.7 billion each year. It is believed to have a combination of vascular and degenerative origins and to have correlations with localised lesions, or infarctions, in the brains of affected patients. Mini-strokes are one of the causes for this disease as the presence of ischemia is highly related to the risk factors for dysfunction of the neurovascular unit.

To overcome several clinical challenges involving mechanical heart valves, accurate numerical simulation of blood flow through these devices has been of interest.

Abstract:

Federated approach for the distributed simulation of a network, is an alternative method that aims to combine existing simulation models and software together using a Run Time Infrastructure (RTI), rather than building the whole simulation from scratch. In this study, an approach that significantly reduces the inter-federate communication load in federated simulation of communication networks is proposed. Rather than communicating packet-level information among federates, characteristics of packet flows in individual federates are dynamically identified and communicated. Flow characterization

Abstract:

The incidence of disease of the cardiovascular system is very high and increasing worldwide, especially in the developing world. The radial and ulnar arteries are implicated in some important ailments where blood flow related parameters such as flow rate (FR), wall shear rate (WSR), arterial wall motion (AWM) and pressure, all of which can be measured using ultrasound techniques, are useful in diagnosis and patient management. However these measurements are prone to error due to the manner of image formation and the complex flow conditions within the vessels. In this thesis, the errors in ultr
