• coronary artery disease (CAD) repair.
PROBLEM
FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION BETWEEN BLOOD FLOW AND ARTERIAL WALLS IN HEALTHY AND DISEASED STATES
1. Help predict initiation of disease
2. Help improve treatment of disease
Prostheses design for non-surgical treatment of AAA and CAD
ANALYSIS OF FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION CAN:
DIFFICULT PROBLEM TO STUDY: MULTI-PHYSICS AND MULTI-SCALE NATURE
• BLOOD has complicated rheology: red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in plasma (relevant at small scales)
• VESSEL WALLS have complex structure: intima, media, adventitia (+ smaller scales layers); different mech. char.
• Challenging to model. • INTERACTION (COUPLING) exceedingly complicated.
Red Blood Cells
Platelets
White Blood Cells
Plasma
COUPLING BETWEEN BLOOD FLOW AND VESSEL WALL MOTION
• NONLINEAR COUPLING: density of the arterial walls is roughly the same as density of blood
• TWO TIME SCALES: fast traveling waves in arterial walls and slow bulk blood flow velocity
• COMPETITION BETWEEN “HYPERBOLIC” AND “PARABOLIC” EFFECTS (wave propagation vs. diffusion)
• algorithms developed for other applications, e.g. aeroelasticity, UNSTABLE; • novel ideas and algorithms needed
•resolving both scales accurately requires sophisticated methods
•resolving the two different effects requires different techniques
PAST 10 YEARS: intensified activity in fluid-structure interaction studies due to development of new mathematical tools (beginning with earlier work of Peskin (1989).)
CURRENT METHODS (far from optimal): • computationally expensive (implicit, monolithic schemes, commercial software)
OR• suffer from stability problems (explicit, loosely coupled algorithms)
TRADITIONAL SOFTWARE FOR BLOOD FLOW SIMULATION• ASSUMES FIXED VESSEL WALLS
ACTIVE AREA OF RESEARCH in the years to come
CHALLENGES: - 3D simulations of larger sections of cardiovasc. sys. - complicated geometries - complicated tissue models
• Design of a numerical algorithm (“kinematically coupled”) with a novel operator splitting approach (hyperbolic/parabolic) with improved stability properties.
• Fundamental properties of the interaction and of the solution.
• Derivation of new closed, effective models.
COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION IN BLOOD FLOW
(medium-to-large arteries: laminar flow and Re away from the turbulent regime)
• Models allowing two different structures (stent modeling).

Coronary stenosis
• constriction or narrowing of coronary arteries
• coronary arteries supply oxygenated blood to the heart.
• 12,600,000 Americans suffer from CAD
• 515,000 die from heart attacks
caused by CAD each year (NHLBI)
Treatment:
coronary angioplasty
MEDICAL PROBLEM
COMPLICATION: RESTENOSIS• related to the development of neo-intimal hyperplasia
• scar tissue in response to mechanical intervention with material of poor biocompatibility
• 35% after angioplasty without stent
• 19 % with stent (R. Kurnik)
