If you have a question about this talk, please contact Fabian Spill. The first part of the talk introduces Discrete Multiphysics [1]: a hybrid computational technique based on the combination of discrete, particle-based, models such as Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics, the Discrete Element Method and the Spring Lattice Model. Its advantages and disadvantages with respect traditional, mesh-based, multiphysics are discussed. The second part applies Discrete Multiphysics to in-silico modelling oh human organs with examples coming from cardiovascular flows [2], deep venous thrombosis [3-4], the lungs [5] and the intestine [6]. Other biological applications (e.g. flows containing cells) are also discussed [8]. The last part of the talk focuses on the combination of Discrete Multiphysics with Machine Learning and in particular Reinforcement Learning. The computational-particles used in Discrete Multiphysics are linked to computational-neurons used in Artificial Intelligence algorithms. This new technique combines the advantage of multiphysics and machine learning and it is particular well-suited to model the effect of the autonomic nervous system in in-silico models of human organs [8].
