Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study on the fetal aortic coarctation

Including aortic valve morphology in computational fluid dynamics simulations: initial findings and application to aortic coarctation.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations quantifying thoracic aortic flow patterns have not included disturbances from the aortic valve (AoV). 80% of patients with aortic coarctation (CoA) have a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) which may cause adverse flow patterns contributing to morbidity. Our objectives were to develop a method to account for the AoV in CFD simulations, and quantify its im...

High performance parallel computing for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

The supersonic aerodynamic coefficient of a sphere that represents a broken piece of structure under explosion was obtained by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).The computer that was used in this study was self-made cluster type parallel machine and available maximum number of CPU was 128. The CFD software named CFD++ was used in this study. CFD++ is general purpose CFD software to solve...

Implementing Cfd (computational Fluid Dynamics) in Opencl for Building Simulation

Though researchers in computer graphics have started to use the GPGPU (General Purposed Graphics Processing Unit) method to speed up their procedural programs, these techniques are seldom used in the building simulation field. It is possible to apply the GPGPU method to many simulation scenarios (i.e. human evacuation, shadow simulation) to speed up performance. In this paper, CFD is used as an...
