Weighted Least-Squares Finite Element Method for Cardiac Blood Flow Simulation with Echocardiographic Data

Figure 5

WLSFEM simulations of blood flow in the left ventricle at  sec (early diastole in our model). The left figure is the simulation without PIV data ( ), and the right figure incorporates the PIV data ( ). The PIV data has very little impact on the numerical simulation.
