... need to understand the mechanisms for coil embolization failure. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling often simplifies modeling the endovascular coils as a homogeneous porous medium (PM), and focuses on the vascular wall endothelium, not considering the biomechanical environment of platelets...

..., was modeled using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), with a view to assessing the magnitude and distribution of the wall shear stress (WSS) on the hollow fibers and flow fields in the oxygenators. This work demonstrated significant inhomogeneity in the flow dynamics of both oxygenators, with regions of high...
