Abstract This study explores the implementation of computed tomography (CT) reconstruction and simulation techniques for patient-specific valves, aiming to dissect the mechanical attributes of calcified valves within transcatheter heart valve replacement (TAVR) procedures. In order to facilitate this exploration, it derives pertinent formulas for 3D multi-material isogeometric hyperelastic analysis based on Hounsfield unit (HU) values, thereby unlocking foundational capabilities for isogeometric analysis in calcified aortic valves. A series of uniaxial and biaxial tensile tests is executed to obtain an accurate constitutive model for calcified active valves. To mitigate discretization errors, methodologies for reconstructing volumetric parametric models, More >
