Development and experimental verification of a three-dimensional model of left ventricular flow dynamics

Ischemic heart disease, which results from the insufficient coronary artery blood flow is a leading cause of mortality in developed countries. It manifests itself by abnormal left ventricular wall motion during systole. A three dimensional numerical model was developed to simulate the flow patterns...
