Myocardial infarction, also known as a heart attack, is the single leading cause of death in North America. It results from the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque, which occurs in response to both mechanical stress and inflammatory processes. In order to validate computational models of atherosclerotic coronary arteries, a novel technique for molding realistic compliant phantom featuring injection-molded inclusions and multiple layers has been developed. This transparent phantom allows for particle image velocimetry (PIV) flow analysis and can supply experimental data to validate computational fluid dynamics algorithms and hypothesis.

This publication focuses on the experimental validation of film models by comparing constructed and experimental velocity fields based on model and elementary experimental data. The film experiment covers Kapitza numbers Ka = 278.8 and Ka = 4538.6, a Reynolds number range of 1.6–52, and disturbance frequencies of 0, 2, 5, and 7 Hz. Compared to previous publications, the applied methodology has boundary identification procedures that are more refined and provide additional adaptive particle image velocimetry (PIV) method access to synthetic particle images. The experimental method was validated with a comparison with experimental particle image velocimetry and planar laser induced fluorescence (PIV/PLIF) results, Nusselt’s theoretical prediction, and experimental particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) results of flat steady cases, and a good continuity equation reproduction of transient cases proves the method’s fidelity. The velocity fields are reconstructed based on different film flow model velocity profile assumptions such as experimental film thickness, flow rates, and their derivatives, providing a validation method of film model by comparison between reconstructed velocity experimental data and experimental velocity data. The comparison results show that the first-order weighted residual model (WRM) and regularized model (RM) are very similar, although they may fail to predict the velocity field in rapidly changing zones such as the front of the main hump and the first capillary wave troughs.

Patient specific mitral valve computational models are being actively developed to facilitate surgical planning. These numerical models increasingly employ more realistic geometries, kinematics, and mechanical properties, which in turn requires rigorous experimental validation [1]. However, to date, native mitral flow dynamics have not been accurately and comprehensively characterized. In this study, we used Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV) to characterize the ventricular flow field proximal to a native mitral valve in a pulsatile experimental flow loop.

Abstract The paper is devoted to development of the optical electronic setup for carrying out measurements by multicolor particle image velocimetry. The main advantage of this method is the ability to visualize vector velocity fields in several planes simultaneously. As a result a 3D model of a setup was developed, a laboratory sample was assembled and series of testing experiments were performed. As a test object, vortex structure formed by a chemical stirrer in a cuvette with liquid has been considered. The experimental data were compared with the computer model developed in SolidWorks and FlowVision software.

Abstract In recent years, blood flow analysis of diseased arterial mock vessels using particle image velocimetry (PIV) has been hampered by the inability to fabricate optically clear anatomical vessel models that realistically replicate the complex morphology of arterial vessels and provide highly resolved flow images of flow tracer particles. The aim of the present work is to introduce an approach for producing optically clear rigid anatomical models that are suitable for PIV analysis using a common 3-D SLA inkjet printing process (using a Formlabs Form 2 3-D printer) and stock clear resin (RS-F2-GPCL-04). By matching the index of refraction (IOR) of the working fluid to the stock clear resin material, and by printing the part in a 45-degree print orientation, a clear anatomical model that allows clear visualization of flow tracer particles can be produced which yields highly resolved flow images for PIV analyses. However, a 45-degree print orientation increases the need for post processing due to an increased amount of printed support material. During post processing, the part must be wet sanded in several steps and surface finished with Novus Plastic Polish 3 Step System to achieve the final surface finish needed to yield high quality flow images. The fabrication methodology of the clear anatomical models is described in detail.
