  1. 1. The functional anatomy of the crocodilian heart

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Author : Jennifer Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Anatomy; Cardiac right-to-left shunt; Cog-teeth-like valves; Crocodilian heart; Foramen of Panizza; Hemodynamics; Left aorta;

    Abstract : Crocodiles are ectothermic, intermittent breathing reptiles with low metabolic rates. Additionally, they are diving animals that can stay submerged for long periods, which poses special demands on their cardiovascular system. The crocodilian heart is four-chambered with completely separated ventricles, making it unique among other reptiles. READ MORE

  2. 2. Morphological characterization of the muscular ridge in non-crocodilian reptiles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Wilma Sohlén; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptation; Anatomy; Function; Haemodynamics; Muscular ridge; Reptiles; Shunting;

    Abstract : The cardiovascular systems in ectothermic reptiles have long been studied and its development represent a transition state between a single- and a double circulation. This literature review focus on the typical-reptilian heart and therefore distinguishes between orders within the class of Reptilia. READ MORE

  3. 3. BLOOD FLOW DYNAMICS IN IDEALIZED MODEL OF LEFT ATRIUM USING FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Marwin Haddad; Yonatan Noel Efrem; [2023]
    Keywords : finite element analysis; fluid mechanics; blood flow dynamics; cardiovascular anatomy;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases, including heart failure, are a global health concern, necessitating advancements in non-invasive diagnostic tools and treatments. Computational modeling offers an invaluable approach to simulate and understand the intricacies of cardiac flow dynamics. READ MORE

  4. 4. Träning av varmblodiga travhästar : en kartläggning hos fem svenska travtränare

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Alicia Flyrin; Felicia Hägglund; [2021]
    Keywords : varmblodig travhäst; hjärtfrekvens; träning;

    Abstract : Den varmblodiga travhästen tävlar i hastigheter upp mot 50 kilometer i timmen. Under ett lopp förväntas hästarna springa flera kilometer med en maximal hjärtfrekvens. Den moderna travhästen har ett effektivt rörelsemönster, som är framavlad så att den ska kunna springa i höga hastigheter. READ MORE

  5. 5. Multimaterial 3D Printing of a mechanically representative aortic model for the testing of novel biomedical implants

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Sudhanshu Kuthe; [2019]
    Keywords : 3D printing; Aortic model; Composite design; Stiffness; Bio-material;

    Abstract : Aortic stenosis is a serious cardiovascular disease that requires urgent attention and surgical intervention. If not treated, aortic stenosis can result in heart attack or cardiac arrest. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement is a surgical technique that is used to treat aortic stenosis. READ MORE
