About HeMoLab<\/h3>\t\t\t
The HeMoLab<\/b> (Hemodynamics Modeling Laboratory) group is, since 2006, a R&D group within the National Laboratory for Scientific Computing (LNCC\/MCTI). Background areas of HeMoLab<\/b> team members and collaborators are Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physiology, Cardiology, Anatomy and Physics. Core activities are related to the modeling and numerical simulation of physiological systems, more specifically the cardiovascular system. Research efforts are concentrated towards developing coupled and multiscale physical models based on variational foundations, as well as to develop and implement numerical approximations based on the Finite Element Method, the Finite Volume Method and the Lattice-Boltzmann Method. Blood flow models, fluid structure interaction, wave propagation phenomena, medical image processing, constitutive multiscale modeling and parameter identification procedures are some of the activities of the group. Software development targeting distributed computing systems is a continuous concern with the aim of popularizing modeling and simulation tools and facilitate their use in real large scale problems.<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
