TITLE: Validation of an open source framework for the simulation of 
blood flow in medical devices

ABSTRACT: We discuss the validation of an open source framework for the 
solution of problems arising in hemodynamics. The framework is assessed 
through experimental data for fluid flow in an idealized medical device 
with rigid boundaries. The core of the framework is an open source 
parallel finite element library that features several algorithms for 
fluid problems. The numerical results for the flow in the idealized 
device are in good quantitative agreement with the measured axial 
components of the velocity and pressures for flow rates corresponding to 
laminar, transitional, and turbulent regimes.  A detailed account of the 
methods is provided. In particular, we report on results obtained with 
both Direct Numerical Simulation and filter stabilization techniques, 
the latter being used to model and extract the energy lost to resolved 
scales when the mesh is under-resolved.
