A new two-dimensional model for blood flows in arteries with arbitrary cross sections is derived. The model consists of a system of balance laws for conservation of mass and balance of momentum in the axial and angular directions. The equations are derived by applying asymptotic analysis to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in narrow, large vessels and integrating in the radial direction in each cross section. The main properties of the system are discussed and a positivity-preserving well-balanced central-upwind scheme is presented. The merits of the scheme will be tested in a variety of scenarios. In particular, numerical results of simulations using an idealized aorta model are shown. We analyze the time evolution of the blood flow under different initial conditions such as perturbations to steady states consisting of a bulging in the vessels wall. We consider different situations given by distinct variations in the vessels elasticity.

In this paper, we propose a direct Eulerian generalized Riemann problem (GRP) scheme for a blood flow model in arteries. It is an extension of the Eulerian GRP scheme, which is developed by Ben-Artzi, et. al. in J. Comput. Phys., 218(2006). By using
the Riemann invariants, we diagonalize the blood flow system into a weakly coupled system, which is used to resolve rarefaction wave. We also use Rankine-Hugoniot condition to resolve the local GRP formulation. We pay special attention to the acoustic case as well as the sonic case. The extension to the two dimensional case is carefully obtained by using the dimensional splitting technique. We test that the derived GRP scheme is second order accuracy.
We performed numerical simulations of blood flow in arteries with a variable stiffness and cross-section at rest using a finite volume method coupled with a hydrostatic reconstruction of the variables at the interface of each mesh cell. The method wa
s then validated on examples taken from the literature. Asymptotic solutions were computed to highlight the effect of the viscous and viscoelastic source terms. Finally, the blood flow was computed in an artery where the cross-section at rest and the stiffness were varying. In each test case, the hydrostatic reconstruction showed good results where other simpler schemes did not, generating spurious oscillations andnonphysical velocities.
We propose an integrated electromechanical model of the human heart, with focus on the left ventricle, wherein biophysically detailed models describe the different physical phenomena concurring to the cardiac function. We model the subcellular genera
tion of active force by means of an Artificial Neural Network, which is trained by a suitable Machine Learning algorithm from a collection of pre-computed numerical simulations of a biophysically detailed, yet computational demanding, high-fidelity model. To provide physiologically meaningful results, we couple the 3D electromechanical model with a closed-loop 0D (lumped parameters) model describing the blood circulation in the whole cardiovascular network. We prove that the 3D-0D coupling of the two models is compliant with the principle of energy conservation, which is achieved in virtue of energy-consistent boundary conditions that account for the interaction among cardiac chambers within the computational domain, pericardium and surrounding tissue. We thus derive an overall balance of mechanical energy for the 3D-0D model. This provides a quantitative insight into the energy utilization, dissipation and transfer among the different compartments of the cardiovascular network and during different stages of the heartbeat. In virtue of this new model and the energy balance, we propose a new validation tool of heart energy usage against relationships used in the daily clinical practice. Finally, we provide a mathematical formulation of an inverse problem aimed at recovering the reference configuration of one or multiple cardiac chambers, starting from the stressed configuration acquired from medical imaging. This is fundamental to correctly initialize electromechanical simulations. Numerical methods and simulations of the 3D-0D model will be detailed in Part II.
In the framework of accurate and efficient segregated schemes for 3D cardiac electromechanics and 0D cardiovascular models, we propose here a novel numerical approach to address the coupled 3D-0D problem introduced in Part I of this two-part series o
f papers. We combine implicit-explicit schemes to solve the different cardiac models in a multiphysics setting. We properly separate and manage the different time and space scales related to cardiac electromechanics and blood circulation. We employ a flexible and scalable intergrid transfer operator that enables to interpolate Finite Element functions among different meshes and, possibly, among different Finite Element spaces. We propose a numerical method to couple the 3D electromechanical model and the 0D circulation model in a numerically stable manner within a fully segregated fashion. No adaptations are required through the different phases of the heartbeat. We also propose a robust algorithm to reconstruct the stress-free reference configuration. Due to the computational cost associated with the numerical solution of this inverse problem, the reference configuration recovery algorithm comes along with a novel projection technique to precisely recover the unloaded geometry from a coarser representation of the computational domain. We show the convergence property of our numerical schemes by performing an accuracy study through grid refinement. To prove the biophysical accuracy of our computational model, we also address different scenarios of clinical interest in our numerical simulations by varying preload, afterload and contractility. Indeed, we simulate physiologically relevant behaviors and we reproduce meaningful results in the context of cardiac function.
This paper studies a model of two-phase flow with an immersed material viscous interface and a finite element method for numerical solution of the resulting system of PDEs. The interaction between the bulk and surface media is characterized by no-pen
etration and slip with friction interface conditions. The system is shown to be dissipative and a model stationary problem is proved to be well-posed. The finite element method applied in this paper belongs to a family of unfitted discretizations. The performance of the method when model and discretization parameters vary is assessed. Moreover, an iterative procedure based on the splitting of the system into bulk and surface problems is introduced and studied numerically.
