Functional assessment of the thoracic aorta in patients with aortic valve pathology using patient-specific computational fluid dynamics

This thesis contributes to knowledge by assessing the link between the aortic valve and pathology of the thoracic aorta from both a biomechanical and computational fluid dynamics viewpoint. For many years, international guidelines for intervention on the aorta have concentrated on size alone. Howeve...
