Biomedical & Healthcare CFD
Fluid flow is central to life: blood circulation, breathing and renal flow. CFD gives engineers and researchers a window into these processes. Since its introduction to biomedical engineering, CFD has made it possible to study complex anatomy, physiological processes and disease, and to develop devices such as stents and prosthetics. Patient-specific modelling promises to improve healthcare further.

Blood-flow, airflow and medical device simulation for research and product development.
What we analyse
- Blood flow in arteries, aneurysms and stenoses (wall shear stress, pressure drop)
- Stent and graft design evaluation
- Respiratory airflow and inhaler / nebuliser drug deposition
- Blood pumps, cannulas and dialysis devices
- Image-based modelling: CT/MRI scans to 3D simulation models
- Hospital ventilation and airborne infection control
Our biomedical services support research and device engineering; they are not a substitute for clinical diagnosis.
