[Finite element analysis of pulsatile flow in aortic arch].
The blood flows in the ascending aorta and the aortic arch are studied. The theoretical models, boundary conditions and calculation conditions are proposed. The numerical simulation with finite element method of the blood flow in aortic arch of dogs is carried out according to the physiologically pulsatile flow conditions. The calculation results are analyzed with scientific visualization method.
