Abstract:Objective To construct an individualized fluid-solid coupling model, calculate and analyze the influence of different blood characteristics on hemodynamics in the aneurysm cavity, and further explore the influence on rupture of the cerebral aneurysm. Methods First, three-dimensional (3D) digital silhouette images were collected to construct an aneurysm model, and the influence of different blood flow characteristics on dynamic parameters of the carotid aneurysm was analyzed by computational fluid dynamic (CFD) method under the same boundary conditions. Finally, particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiment was performed on the simplified carotid aneurysm experimental model to verify reliability of the blood flow calculation method. Results For the fluid-structure coupling model with different blood flow characteristics, within a cardiac cycle, at the same time, obvious differences were found in the low velocity area of tumor cavity, the streamline distributions of tumor cavity, the wall shear stress (WSS) and deformation of the aneurysm wall. Through PIV experiments, it was found that the vortex position in tumor cavity changed with the velocity, which was consistent with flow trend of the simulation analysis results. Conclusions The two kinds of blood characteristics have small differences, but the non-Newtonian fluid is closer to true state of the blood, and the numerical results will be closer to true flow state.
