Modeling and simulation of the human cardio-vascular system
We show two different aspects of the cardiovascular modelling. At first, the local behaviour of blood flow in a stented artery where the stent is considered as a periodic perturbation of the boundary. We show some strategies to reconsider the problem but on a smooth geometry. This leads to higher order wall-laws. In a second part of the talk we focus on the coupling between a heart muscle and a lumped parameter model that represents the whole arterio-vascular system. We show different possible couplings and some preliminary numerical results.
