Wir laden Sie herzlich zum nächsten BioTechMed-Graz Faculty Club am Mittwoch, 15.05.2019 um 17 Uhr ein (Stremayrgasse 16, Hörsaal BMT).
Prof. Alfio Quarteroni (Professor für Numerik und Gründer des "Laboratory for Modeling and Scientific Computing MOX" an der Politecnico di Milano) wird eine Flagship Lecture zum Thema "Numerical models of the circulatory system" halten. Untenstehend finden Sie nähere Informationen zu seinem Vortrag.
Im Anschluss gibt es wie gewohnt die Gelegenheit zu informellem Austausch bei einem kleinen Buffet in der „Mensa Rooftop an der TU Graz“ im fünften Stock.
Für die Verantstaltung ist keine Anmeldung erforderlich.

Flagship Lecture Prof. Quarteroni, 15.05.2019:
"In this presentation I will highlight the interplay between data science and computational science to efficiently solve large scale problems. The leading application that I will address is the numerical simulation of the cardio-circulatory system."
Mathematical models based on first principles allow the description of the blood motion in the human circulatory system, as well as the interaction between electrical, mechanical and fluid-dynamical processes occurring in the heart.
Appropriate numerical strategies can be devised to allow an effective description of the fluid in large and medium size arteries, the analysis of physiological and pathological conditions, and the simulation, control and shape optimization of assisted devices or surgical prostheses.
This presentation will address some of these issues and a few representative applications of clinical interest.
