Project Data

ARTreat Highlights

Researchers from the RWTH Aachen University have set up a detailed numerical model of the cardiovascular system in order to simulate the blood flow and its impact on cardiovascular diseases.

A physiological flow situation is achieved by generating the geometry for the model from imaging volume date (CT, MRI) and conversion to a 3D computer model. A physical model of the same geometry is produced by Rapid prototyping in order to enable PIV-measurements for experimental validation of the numerical results.
