Numerical coupling of 0D and 1D models in networks of vessels including transonic flow conditions. Application to short-term transient and stationary hemodynamic simulation of postural changes.

When modeling complex fluid networks using one-dimensional (1D) approaches, boundary conditions can be imposed using zero-dimensional (0D) models. An application case is the modeling of the entire human circulation using closed-loop models. These models can be considered as a tool to investigate short-term transient and stationary hemodynamic responses to postural changes.

A gradient-descent adjoint method for the reconstruction of boundary conditions in a river flow nitrification model.

One of the reasons for the limited applicability of predictive water quality models is the lack of data from monitoring control stations that are required as input. In this context, the main novelty of the present work is the recovery of information on the state variables present in a water quality model through measured data at a target downstream location. The reconstruction of the upstream boundary condition is the goal of the present work.
