Abstract
Modeling of fluid mechanics for the vascular system is of great value as a source of knowledge about development, progression, and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Full three-dimensional simulation of blood flow in the whole human body is a hard computational problem. We discuss parallel decomposition of blood flow simulation as a graph partitioning problem. The detailed model of full human arterial tree and some simpler geometries are discussed. The effectiveness of coarse-graining as well as pure spectral approaches is studied. Published data can be useful for development of parallel hemodynamic applications as well as for estimation of their effectiveness and scalability.
