Assessment of the stiffness of the aortic wall by Pulse Wave Velocity to predict risk of thoracic aortic aneurysm among hypertensive patients: The T-watch study
Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (TAA) is a silent but lethal, disease, with 95% of TAAs being asymptomatic before an acute event, such as dissection or rupture, occurs. Read more
Investigation of aortic remodelling in obesity and role of mitochondrial dysfunction
Obesity is a global healthcare and economic burden with currently more than 650 million adults classified as obese (WHO, 2017). Obesity is a common precursor to type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and both are risk factors for developing cardiovascular disease. Read more
THE HARD FACTS ABOUT VASCULAR INFLAMMAGING: Role of vascular stiffness on vascular smooth muscle cell inflammatory phenotype
ABSTRACT. Chronic inflammation is a major factor in the initiation and progression of many cardiovascular pathologies, including atherosclerosis, abdominal aortic aneurysms, and pulmonary artery hypertension. Read more
Enhancing ultrasound images using physics-based AI for accurate measurement of blood velocity within the heart
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally with 18 million deaths/year. Ultrasound is an inexpensive, non-invasive imaging technique without ionising radiation and so is widely used in many fields of medicine. Read more
Computational Fluid Dynamics of blood: multi-scale and multi-phase
The focus of this project is the application of multi-phase rheological models to blood modelling. Very specifically, an MKM5 Eulerian-Eulerian rheological model, with a Lagrangian discrete phase of particle seeded in this bulk flow. Read more
Numerical simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems
Research Group:
School of Computing
This project aims to develop and implement parallel fluid-structure interaction algorithms including interfaced-fitted methods [1] and two-mesh methods [2], based upon FreeFem++ and PETSc, with application to modelling and simulation of aortic valve interacting with surrounding fluids and tissues; and large-scale simulation of biological swimmers (such as C.
