The Ultrasonic-Measurement-Integrated (UMI) simulation, in which feedback signals proportional to the optimal estimation of the difference in velocity vector against real blood flow obtained by Doppler velocities are applied at grid points in the feedback domain, has been developed to reproduce complicated hemodynamics. This paper evaluates UMI simulation for three-dimensional unsteady blood flow in aneurysmal aorta. We performed a numerical experiment of UMI simulation with an unsteady standard solution of the three-dimensional blood flow in an aneurysmal aorta with a realistic boundary condition. The UMI simulation was performed with an inaccurate boundary condition and various feedback arrangements assuming the acquisition of Doppler velocities in the aneurysmal domain or feedback domain. The application of feedback made the computational result approach to the standard solution, so that UMI simulation estimated the hemodynamic stresses more correctly than the ordinary simulation. Hence, UMI simulation of real blood flows will bring significant benefits for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of circulatory diseases.

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against blood vessel walls as the heart pumps out blood, and high blood pressure, also called hypertension, is an increase in the amount of force that blood places on blood vessels as it moves through the body. Factors that can increase this force include higher blood volume due to extra fluid in the blood and blood vessels that are narrow, stiff, or clogged(1). High blood pressure can damage blood vessels in the kidneys, reducing their ability to work properly. When the force of blood flow is high, blood vessels stretch so blood flows more easily. Eventually, this stretching scars and weakens blood vessels throughout the body, including those in the kidneys.

The Sturm-Liouville problem with various types of two-point boundary conditions is considered in this paper. In the first part of the paper, we investigate the Sturm-Liouville problem in three cases of nonlocal two-point boundary conditions. We prove general properties of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues for such a problem in the complex case. In the second part, we investigate the case of real eigenvalues. It is analyzed how the spectrum of these problems depends on the boundary condition parameters. Qualitative behavior of all eigenvalues subject to the nonlocal boundary condition parameters is described.
