Developed and validated the Windkessel Outlet Boundary Condition Process for the KratosMultiphysics/Kratos repository, enabling physiologically-based outlet pressure modeling in vascular simulations. Leveraging C++ and Python, the process computes outlet pressure from flow rate and historical states, with robust initialization and per-step updates to ensure numerical stability. Addressed error handling by fixing the default value assignment for the Windkessel outlet process, preventing misconfiguration when values are provided as strings or numbers. Incorporated dedicated unit tests to verify correct behavior and maintain code quality. This work expanded configurable boundary conditions and improved the fidelity and maintainability of fluid dynamics simulations in Kratos.
May 2025 monthly summary for Kratos: Implemented and validated the Windkessel Outlet Boundary Condition Process to enable physiologically-based outlet pressure modeling via resistance and compliance. The process computes outlet pressure from flow rate and historical states with proper initialization and updates within each solution step, and includes dedicated unit tests to verify behavior. Fixed default handling for the Windkessel outlet process value to default to 0.0 when provided as string or number, preventing misconfiguration. These changes increase modeling fidelity for vascular simulations, improve numerical stability, and expand configurable boundary conditions, delivering measurable business and scientific value.
