Simulation of Clotting Processes using Non–Newtonian Blood Models and the Lattice Boltzmann Method
The topic of this thesis is the simulation of blood clotting using the Lattice Boltzmann method and taking into account the non-Newtonian behavior of blood. This kind of simulations could be used for the treatment of diseases like stenosis and aneurysms. Their field of application includes the diagnostic of the diseases, the planning of surgeries and the investigation of new medical treatment s...
متن کاملLattice-Boltzmann Simulations of Cerebral Blood Flow
Imagination is more important than knowledge... Albert Einstein Computational haemodynamics play a central role in the understanding of blood behaviour in the cerebral vasculature, increasing our knowledge in the onset of vascular diseases and their progression, improving diagnosis and ultimately providing better patient prognosis. Computer simulations hold the potential of accurately character...
متن کاملA second-order accurate lattice Boltzmann non-Newtonian flow model
Abstract A second-order accurate lattice Boltzmann model is presented for nonNewtonian flow. The non-Newtonian nature of the flow is implemented using a power law model. This is used to enable the accuracy of the model to be assessed and is not a limitation of the model. The second-order accuracy is demonstrated for a range of power law model parameter values representing shear thinning and she...
متن کاملA lattice Boltzmann study of the non-Newtonian blood flow in stented aneurysm
The analysis of a flow pattern in cerebral aneurysms and the effect of strut shapes and stent porosity in 2D and 3D model are presented in this paper. The efficiency of a stent is related to several parameters, including porosity and stent strut shapes. The goal of this paper is to identify numerically how the stent strut shape and the porosity affect the hemodynamics properties of the flow ins...
متن کاملNon-Newtonian Rheology in Blood Circulation
Blood is a complex suspension that demonstrates several non-Newtonian rheological characteristics such as deformation-rate dependency, viscoelasticity and yield stress. In this paper we outline some issues related to the non-Newtonian effects in blood circulation system and present modeling approaches based mostly on the past work in this field.
