Design and Dynamic Analysis of Artificial Heart Model by Using FEA
摘要
The human heart is an organ which made up of cardiac muscle that receives blood from the human body, push to lungs for gas exchange, receives oxygenated blood from lungs and pushes to all over the body for proper function of the tissues and organs. The heart’s interior walls and valves are part of its intricate geometry. Humans depend heavily on their hearts to survive and perform various tasks. When compared to previous decades, the current human death rate from heart failure is significantly higher. Therefore, other approaches are needed to control the death ratio, such as implanting an artificial heart or cardiac-assisting equipment. Examining the biomechanical behaviour of an artificial heart is challenging since these devices have intricate geometry and material properties. The creation of a next-generation, inexpensive, easily programmable, low-power, and long-lasting artificial heart meant to temporarily or permanently replace a natural heart was the main emphasis of the current work. The design model underwent dynamic and computational fluid dynamics study to evaluate its dynamic response and the impact of pressurised blood on heart performance during blood flow cycles. The outcomes will be contrasted with the currently available entirely artificial heart.
