ABSTRACT In this paper we present an approach to quantify the effect of triangular surface simplification on hemodynamic modeling. This work is organized in three parts. First, we briefly present the basic concepts inherent in hemodynamic modeling. Then, we describe the approach of triangular surface simplification. The simplified triangular surfaces are used as input as well as a parabolic inlet velocity profile to the hemodynamic modeling procedure. As a validation, the third part will be focused on two examples carotid blood flow characterization for a healthy patient and one with stenosis in the carotid artery. We quantified the differences between the generated models by evaluating the eucledean similarity, rate of change and RMSE between the measured and modeled velocity obtained with different mesh densities. We conclude with the important effect of re-meshing on the modeled results and we propose a minimum threshold of facets which ensures a good simulated velocity profile with a minimum error rate. |
