Finite element (FE) modeling the motion of deformable bodies within a fluid, as well as the interaction between the bodies, has been a continuous challenge over the years. There are in principle two approaches – loose and strong coupling between the FE models of the two domains, with their advantages and drawbacks. We here present our concept...

Aortic dissection is a severe clinical condition that demands a thorough understanding of the interactions between the true and false lumens. In this study, numerical simulations were performed for two patients, generating two preoperative and two postoperative models. The analyses were carried out using the PAKSF solver, a specialized tool for flu...

Mass transport is a fundamental process in living organisms, responsible for the delivery of oxygen, nutrients, and drugs from blood vessels to tissues, as well as the removal of waste products back to the vascular and lymphatic systems. This exchange occurs across various biological barriers, including blood vessel walls and cellular membranes, an...

The extremely complex biological and biochemical processes are mainly treated by laboratory and clinical investigations. In recent decades, the application of computational modeling has become more important in research and applications in the medical sciences. Despite enormous efforts and achievements in this modeling, there is still a need for ne...

The concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) model is one of the most popular constitutive models implemented into various Finite Element Method software. The application to the real structures is documented in the literature, but still there are some doubts about the response in combination with the various finite elements. Simple benchmark examples simu...

The interaction between the Finite Element Method (FEM) and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is crucial in multiphysics simulations of granular–structure systems, impacts, and material behavior. This paper presents a penalty-based contact algorithm with Coulomb friction for FEM–SPH coupling. The method accounts for static and dynam...

Huxley-type muscle models offer a physiologically grounded description of cardiac contraction but remain computationally prohibitive for large-scale, multi-scale simulations. This article reviews surrogate modeling strategies that alleviate these costs for ventricular biomechanics, with emphasis on data-driven (RNN/TCN/GRU) and physics-informed (PI...
