FSI-validated simulations extend MHV flow modeling tools; clinical translation to valve selection remains unproven.
Fluid dynamics analysis of a bi-leaflet mechanical heart valve identifies regions of high shear stress that may promote thrombus formation, providing a basis for future valve design improvements.
