The course is organized in three parts. In the first part, students will be introduced to the theoretical and numerical basis of molecular dynamics. This theoretical framework is a powerful tool to establish from the first principles the material behavior and also to discover the molecular origins of pathological states. In this part of the course after a brief introduction on the theory behind this method, different molecular models will be described and discussed. In particular collagen, which plays a critical role in many biological tissues including tendon, bone, teeth and cartilage, will be used to explain how nanoscale modelling of a given material can be used to inform upper level models and to drive useful information on the meso and macro scale behavior. The second part will be dedicated to the multi-scale modelling of biological tissues and 3D printed materials. During the lecturesmodels for predicting the elastic properties of biological tissues on the basis of the nano and micro scale organization of their constituents will be presented, focusing on compact and trabecular bone as well as 3D-printed parts. Multi-scale computational methods based on asymptotic approaches will be discussed. Examples including multi-scale modelling of 3D-printed materials used in complex orthopedic applications, as well as heterogeneous spine models including both hard and soft-tissues will also be presented and discussed. The third part will discuss fluid-structure interaction simulations for cardiovascular applications. Interaction between a deformable body and a fluid is observed in many physical problems, especially in the cardiovascular biomechanics. An introduction to the mathematical and numerical aspects of the FSI computational modeling will be present as the governing equations, coupling algorithms and kinematics approaches. FSI algorithms classifications will be discussed, in particular the boundary-fitted methods and the non-boundary fitter method. Numerical implementation within the finite element framework and patient-specific models of transcatheter aortic valve implantation and thoracic endovascular aortic repair will be presented. |
