Abstract
|
|
|
|
A monoleaflet polymer artificial heart valve which showed the remarkable improvement in pressure drop compared with other types of artificial valve was designed to minimize the deflection in vertical direction and the displacement of the valve tip in horizontal direction obtained by using finite element method as the location of the supporting members of the valve frame changed stress distribution change was also studied on each model generated by changing the distance between the frame and supporting members. It was found that by using the valve tip horizontal displacement the minimum valve thickness could be obtained in order to prevent the gap between the valve tip and the frame wall.
