Abstract

Aortic flows with thrombus formation represent a challenging application of fluid- structure interaction (FSI) in biomechanics where blood flow, thrombus, and vessel wall are strongly coupled. Considering patient-specific FSI and thrombus formation on identical time scales remains unfeasible. To resolve this issue, we propose incorporating the dynamics-based thrombus formation model of Menichini et al. [1] into our recently presented semi-implicit, split- step partitioned FSI scheme for non-Newtonian fluids [2, 3]. Herein, we formulate the basic split-step scheme and present the first promising results, merely coupling the fluid pressure and structure displacement iteratively at each time step.
