Research
Mechanical system architecture, hemodynamic interaction, and biointerface stability for artificial cardiac systems designed for long-term biological integration.
Research Domains
Our research is structured into three core domains that connect engineering precision with biological response.
Mechanical System Architecture
Artificial circulatory systems must maintain stable flow under continuously varying physiological conditions. We evaluate structural reliability, pressure distribution, flow stability, and mechanical stress behaviour over extended operating cycles.
Simulation models and experimental test rigs allow us to quantify performance under realistic boundary conditions and defined load scenarios.
Hemodynamic Interaction Engineering
Blood is an active medium. Its interaction with engineered surfaces shapes long-term success. We analyse shear forces, turbulence thresholds, platelet activation potential, and interface-induced responses in controlled environments.
Our hemodynamic models combine computational fluid dynamics with targeted bench-top experiments to validate assumptions and refine designs.
Biointerface Stability
Mechanical precision alone is not sufficient. Long-term biological compatibility depends on interface design. We investigate surface–tissue interaction, material adaptation, and stability across extended operational periods.
Standardised biological testing protocols help us understand how engineered interfaces behave under repeated exposure to blood and tissue.
