Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Modeling and simulation of the heart hemodynamics
Contract type : Fixed-term contract
Renewable contract : Yes
Level of qualifications required : PhD or equivalent
Fonction : Post-Doctoral Research Visit
Assignment
The objective of this research project is de develop a mathematical model and asociated numerical methods for the simulation of the hemodynamics in the four cavities of the heart. The main motivation of this work is driven by the developement of a simulation tool to simulate patohological scenarios, such as the Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), and numerically asses different surgicals options. This work will be performed in the framework of the MEDITWIN project, which involves a collaboration beetwen COMMEDIA projec-team, Dassault Systèmes and SIMBIOTX project-team.
Main activities
The post-doctoral project proposes to address this problem via kinematic uncoupling apporach and a reduced modeling of the valve dynamics. The external circulation will be modeled via a closed-loop lumped parameter models.
Main activities:
- Bibliographic studies
- Development of mathematical models
- Development of numerical methods
- Numerical implementation (FELiScE software)
Skills
Candidates must hold a doctorate in applied mathematics, an have interest in biomedical applications and some experience in the following fields: mathematical modeling, discretization of PDEs, finite element methods, fluid-structure interaction, blood flows simualtions.
Technical Skills: C/C++ programming skills required.
Languages: English
Interpersonal skills: ability to work in a team
