ESTIMATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF PARAMETERS IN A LUMPED CEREBROVASCULAR MODEL

MATHEMATICAL BIOSCIENCES AND ENGINEERING, 6(1), 93–115.

By: S. Pope n, L. Ellwein*, C. Zapata, V. Novak*, C. Kelley*  & M. Olufsen n

author keywords: cardiovascular modeling; systemic resistance; cerebrovascular resistance; parameter estimation; sensitivity analysis; subset selection
MeSH headings : Adult; Aged; Blood Flow Velocity / physiology; Blood Pressure / physiology; Brain / blood supply; Brain / physiology; Cerebral Arteries / physiology; Cerebrovascular Circulation / physiology; Computer Simulation; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Models, Cardiovascular; Ventricular Function / physiology; Young Adult
TL;DR: The method discussed in this study provides a new methodology to extract clinical markers that cannot easily be assessed noninvasively by using nonlinear optimization combined with sensitivity analysis and subset selection. (via Semantic Scholar)

BLOOD FLOW IN THE CIRCLE OF WILLIS: MODELING AND CALIBRATION

MULTISCALE MODELING & SIMULATION, 7(2), 888–909.

By: K. Devault n, P. Gremaud*, V. Novak*, M. Olufsen*, G. Vernieres & P. Zhao

author keywords: blood flow; viscoelastic arteries; fluid-structure interaction; Kalman filtering
TL;DR: A numerical model based on one-dimensional balance laws and ad hoc zero-dimensional boundary conditions is tested against experimental data and demonstrates the viability of the proposed approach on the circle of Willis, a vital subnetwork of the cerebral vasculature. (via Semantic Scholar)

Modeling heart rate regulation - Part I: Sit-to-stand versus head-up tilt

CARDIOVASCULAR ENGINEERING, 8(2), 73–87.

By: M. Olufsen n, A. Alston n, H. Tran n , J. Ottesen * & V. Novak*

author keywords: mathematical modeling; heart rate regulation; sensitivity analysis
MeSH headings : Aged; Baroreflex / physiology; Blood Pressure / physiology; Computer Simulation; Feedback, Physiological / physiology; Female; Head / physiology; Heart Rate / physiology; Humans; Male; Models, Cardiovascular; Posture / physiology; Tilt-Table Test / methods
TL;DR: During head-up tilt, the baseline firing-rate is larger than during sit-to-stand and that the combined effect of vestibular and central command stimulation of muscle sympathetic nerve activity is less pronounced than during sitting to standing. (via Semantic Scholar)
