A parametric study regarding structural design of a bioprosthetic aortic valve by 3D fluid-structure interaction simulations

Since the introduction of transcatheter aortic valve (AV) implantation as a viable option, surgical bioprosthetic AVs have recently started incorporating shorter struts considering future valve-in-valve procedures. However, the effect of leaflet coaptation geometry on the longevity of these valves r...
