Heart Questions Padlet by Cole Elicker https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9 en-us 2022-10-26 18:34:27 UTC 2025-11-20 04:33:07 UTC hello@padlet.com What are your initial thoughts on this? coelicker1 https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357823780 Our initial thoughts around this project are that it is going to be very interesting and we are probably going to have to use software online to model the heart. We were also thinking we could possibly use a tubular like pipe and create a flap and attach a ball that would cut off the flow of the tube.]]> 2022-10-26 18:38:15 UTC https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357823780 What things do you already know about this topic, and what things do you think that you would need to know to successfully complete this task? coelicker1 https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357826663 Now that we have researched some stuff around hearts we have learned the structure of the heart and the functions of all the parts such as the valves. I think what we still need to learn is how to use 3D printing and online modeling software. We did not end up using the 3D printing software. We ended up needing to know how to use youngs modulus in order to compare our heart valves stress and strain and compare to a human and pigs heart valve.]]> 2022-10-26 18:39:54 UTC https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357826663 How might you go about accomplishing this task? coelicker1 https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357829628 One way we could go about accomplishing this task is researching how to use those 3D programs and online modeling programs. There is many tutorials online and I'm sure we could get help from Mr. Tronconi too. We ended up deciding to build it using a pvc pipe, a wire mesh, a large metal ball, hot glue, a clear tube, a balloon and rubber bands.]]> 2022-10-26 18:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357829628 What information do you need to create an accurate model? coelicker1 https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357830922 The information we need in order to create an accurate model is the basic structure of heart and the actual dimensions of those parts.]]> 2022-10-26 18:43:06 UTC https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357830922 How could your materials be tested? coelicker1 https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357834378 We could test our model by setting up a steady flow of a liquid similar to blood through the heart and examine the valves. We can also test our materials using youngs modulus and we would then be able to compare the stress and strain of our materials to the stress and strain of actual aortic valve tissue.]]> 2022-10-26 18:45:35 UTC https://padlet.com/coelicker1/kvq50o0o12x0bag9/wish/2357834378
