Using Discrete Multiphysics Modelling to Assess the Effect of Calcification on Hemodynamic and Mechanical Deformation of Aortic Valve
This study proposes a 3D particle-based (discrete) multiphysics approach for modelling calcification in the aortic valve. Different stages of calcification (from mild to severe) were simulated, and their effects on the cardiac output were assessed. The cardiac flow rate decreases with the level of c...
