... rates fluid mechanics The fluid mechanics of mechanical heart valves (MHVs) have been studied since the realization some 30 years ago that prosthetic valves were viable replacements for diseased native valves. Initially, the focus was on the overall flow field that developed...

...Pramote Hochareon; Keefe B. Manning; Arnold A. Fontaine; John M. Tarbell; Steven Deutsch Particle image velocimetry (PIV) has been gaining acceptance as a routine tool to evaluate the flow fields associated with fluid mechanical devices. We have developed algorithms to investigate the wall shear...
