Conclusion Summary of the results: Realization of numerical experiments focused on simulation of flow of vitreous humour in a deforming eye ⇒ quantitative characterization of vitreous flow in different scenarios Rheological properties of the vitreous influence the mechanical stress distribution in the vitreous Difference in stresses between Navier-Stokes (pathological) and Burgers (healthy) Eye pathologies such as vitreous and retinal detachment are thought to be closely linked to mechanical processes with high stresses Future: cooperation with Heidelberg University Hospital Dept. of Ophthalmology (retinal detachment) Karel Tůma Simulation of a bovine eye 19/19
Q1-P0 elements aim: to decrease the overall cost of calculation problems on a regular mesh with Dirichlet BC: pure spurious pressure mode (checkerboard) h → 0 ill-conditioned numerical experiments: on a general distorted mesh the spurious pressure modes disappear, and the inf-sup constant is independent of the mesh size (Brezzi, Fortin (1991)) Karel Tůma Simulation of a bovine eye 20/19
