Abstract Fontan circulations are surgical strategies to treat infants born with single ventricle physiology. Clinical and mathematical definitions of Fontan failure are lacking, and understanding is needed of parameters indicative of declining physiologies. Our objective is to develop lumped parameter models of two-ventricle and single-ventricle circulations. These models, their mathematical formulations and a proof of existence of periodic solutions are presented. Sensitivity analyses are performed to identify key parameters. Systemic venous and systolic left ventricular compliances and systemic capillary and pulmonary venous resistances are identified as key parameters. Our models serve as a framework to study the differences between two-ventricle and single-ventricle physiologies and healthy and failing Fontan circulations.

A new numerical method of analyzing adhesive contact mechanics between a sphere and a flat with sub-nanometer roughness is presented. In contrast to conventional theories, the elastic deformations of mean height surfaces and contacting asperities, and Lennard-Jones (LJ) surface forces of both the contacting asperities and noncontacting rough surfaces including valley areas are taken into account. Calculated contact characteristics of a 2-mm-radius glass slider contacting a magnetic disk with a relatively rough surface and a 30-mm-radius head slider contacting a currently available magnetic disk with lower roughness are shown in comparison with conventional adhesive contact theories. The present theory was found to give a larger adhesive force than the conventional theories and to converge to a smooth sphere-flat contact theory as the roughness height approaches zero.
