Numerical simulation of a transcatheter aortic heart valve under application-related loading

Numerical simulation of a transcatheter aortic heart valve under application-related loading

For the treatment of severe symptomatic aortic valve stenosis, minimally invasive heart valve prostheses have more recently become the lifesaving solution for elderly patients with high operational risk and thus, are often implanted in patients with challenging aortic root configuration. A correct p...
