A numerical study of hemodynamic effects on the bileaflet mechanical heart valve

The work is focused on calculating hemodynamically negative effects of a flow through bileaflet mechanical heart valves (BMHV). Open-source FOAM-extend and cfMesh libraries were used for numerical simulation, the leaflet movement was solved as a fluid-structure interaction. A real model of the Sorin...
