Experimental Bench Validation of a Computational Fluid-Structure Interaction Model of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Dynamics
Purpose: This study extends our fluid-structure interaction (FSI) framework for surgical bioprosthetic heart valves in an experimental pulse duplicator to a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) device. We assess hemodynamic and leaflet kinematic agreement across pulse rates and the transferability of calibrate...
