Application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) in biofluids simulation to solve actual surgery tasks

<p>Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a dynamically developing tool in mechanical engineering and interdisciplinary research. Medicine is one of the areas, where the application of current computational methods is extremely necessary.</p> <p>This study presents the results of using computational fluid dynamics methods to solve actual problems of surgery (modeling of blood flow in the patient-specific aorta of a child with congenital heart disease during bypass surgery; modeling of the flow of bile in the biliary system to predict cholecystectomy outcome; modeling of the chyme flow in the colon).</p>
