Title:

3D Hydrodynamic Model of the Heart

Program Title:

VROOM

Presenter(s):

• Dr. Joel Welling

Description:

This computational model of the heart treats the heart wall as a set of fibers immersed in fluid and responding to both fluid forces and tension forces. The fluid, in turn, experiences a force field in the neighborhood of the fibers that prevents flow through the gaps in the fiber network, allowing the heart to pump the fluid.
