Numerical simulation of pulsatile blood flow across a tilting–disk mechanical heart valve
To overcome several clinical challenges involving mechanical heart valves, accurate numerical simulation of blood flow through these devices has been of interest. Since heart disease is the leading cause of death around the world, the hemodynamic study of the heart is of extraordinary interest in th...
