Abstract
The simulation of the aortic valve (AV) remains challenging due to its geometric complexity and the multi-physics nature of the problem. In this study, we utilized COMSOL to establish a three-dimensional, three-leaflet AV fluid-structure interaction model and investigated the influence of material properties on the valve's mechanical behavior in a healthy state. The results indicated that variations in the aortic wall material model had a minor impact on AV hemodynamics. Additionally, while the linear elastic properties of the leaflets limit valve opening and closing, this material model allows for rapid assessment of AV performance within the range of material deformation.
