Population

Aortic-valve computational model with a quadratic cross-section, two rigid cusps, and two wedge-shaped aortic sinuses

Outcome

Valve opening area as a function of time and pressure at both sides of the cusps

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

This computational model demonstrates that aortic valve closure is controlled by flow deceleration rather than vortices trapped in the aortic sinuses.
