The Vascular Fluid-Structure Interaction Simulation Pipeline (VaSP) is a toolkit for simulating fluid-structure interactions (FSI) in vascular systems. It streamlines the process from pre-processing to post-processing of vascular FSI simulations. Starting with medical image-based surface meshes, VaSP uses extended version of VMTK to generate volumetric FSI meshes. It then runs FSI simulations using turtleFSI. For post-processing, VaSP employs FEniCS and other Python packages to compute hemodynamic indices like wall shear stress and stress/strain. By integrating these tools, VaSP aims to simplify vascular FSI analyses.
VaSP is a Python package for Python >= 3.10, with main dependencies to VaMPy
and turtleFSI. VaSP and its dependencies can be installed with conda
on Linux and
macOS as explained here. The package can also be installed and run through
its latest Docker
image supported by Windows, Linux, and macOS, as explained here.
