Course detail
FSI-RBMAcad. year: 2015/2016
The course is aimed at getting acquainted with the structure of cardio-vascular system, the properties of its elements and with possible ways of solving biomechanical problems by modelling, computational modelling in particular. It offers an overview of these properties and an analysis of their importance from the point of view of solutions of various biomechanical problems. In more detail it deals with computational modelling of specific material properties, which are typical for soft tissues (viscoelasticity, hyperelasticity, anisotropy, material non-linearity), and with practical exploitation of the potentials of the FEM program system ANSYS and analysis of its limitations in solving biomechanical problems. An overview of basic reological properties of blood is presented as well. Further, man-made replacements used in cardio-vascular surgery are dealt with (artificial cardiac pumps, heart valves, arterial stents, vascular grafts); their construction principles, basic requirements of biocompatibility, possibilities of their quantitative assessment and improving their properties are discussed, as well as problems of their lifetime.
