Blood flow simulations could lead to improvements in design of pediatric cardiac pumps

Computer Simulations Could Lead to Better Cardiac Pump for Children With Heart Defects

That's the headline for a new story that highlights a close collaboration between mechanical engineers (who are also medical device researchers) and structural engineers here at the Jacobs School of Engineering.
