The effect of inlet and outlet boundary conditions in image-based CFD modeling of aortic flow

Abstract Background Computational modeling of cardiovascular flow is a growing and useful field, but such simulations usually require the researcher to guess the flow’s inlet and outlet conditions since they are difficult and expensive to measure. It is critical to determine the amount of uncertaint...
