Abstract
Description

[0002] Gastrointestinal diseases are one of the most common diseases in the world. An international multicenter study found that more than 40% of the world's population suffers from functional gastrointestinal diseases. Therefore, understanding the physiological state of the intestine is important for reducing the burden of related diseases. However, the physiological state of the intestine is complex and changeable, and there are significant differences in the intestinal flow field in different intestinal segments and at different times.
[0003] Numerical simulation, as a method of simulating complex medical phenomena using computer algorithms, is often used in the medical field to simulate hemodynamics and biomechanical behavior. Combining intestinal flow field with numerical simulation has become an important supplementary means to study processes such as digestion, absorption, and pH value changes in the intestine. The modeling of intestinal flow field can be significantly achieved through the method of computational fluid dynamics.

[0093] In order to better understand this embodiment, this embodiment is further described below.
[0094] The intestinal flow field modeling method based on bidirectional fluid-solid coupling provided in this embodiment can be roughly divided into the following steps:
[0095] 1. Collect intestinal multimodal data.
[0096] Specifically, the intestine consists of the small intestine, the large intestine, and the rectum. The small intestine is the longest part, with an adult's small intestine length of about 6-7 meters, while the large intestine is about 1.5 meters long. The shape of the intestine is tortuous, which helps to mix and move food during digestion. The thickness of the intestinal wall varies in different parts. The small intestinal wall is composed of the mucosal layer, submucosa, muscular layer, and serosa, and is relatively thin; the large intestinal wall is thicker, especially in the colon area. The main intestinal movement modes include peristalsis, segmental contraction, and swinging contraction. Peristalsis can produce a net propulsion effect along the direction of the intestine, and the other two movement models are mainly used to mix the intestinal contents. Intestinal contents include undigested food residues, water, bacteria, digestive juices, and gases. Their distribution location, proportion, and related characteristics vary due to changes in different segments of the intestine, individual physiological states, and time stages, showing significant dynamic characteristics.
[0097] The multimodal data collected include geometric parameters, motion characteristics, content statistics and wall stress-strain data of the intestine.
[0098] Among them, the intestinal geometric parameters are used to establish a detailed three-dimensional intestinal geometric model, including the precise characterization of the degree of curvature, diameter change and segment length; the motion characteristic data are used to set the segmented peristalsis form in the simulation, and specifically guide the parameterized definition of the contraction cycle, amplitude and propagation rate to improve the biological fit of the simulation model; the content statistics are used to construct the content flow model, which simulates the actual fluid properties by describing the distribution ratio of different components (such as food residues, water, bacteria, etc.); the wall stress and strain data provide support for the definition of the intestinal wall material properties, and are used to determine parameters such as Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.
[0099] 2. Three-dimensional reconstruction of the real human intestinal geometry model.
[0100] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment uses the colon module of the human body phantom open source database BodyParts3D for analysis.
[0101] 3. Model preprocessing.
[0102] Specifically, it includes intestinal model format conversion and simplified modification. This embodiment completes preprocessing through the SpaceClaim module of Ansys Workbench software, including the following steps:
[0103] (31) Model format conversion: Use the Auto Skin method to achieve the conversion from OBJ file format to CAD solid structure format;
[0104] (32) Model simplification: Simplify the intestinal geometry model through smoothing and shrinking geometric operations;
[0105] (33) Model modification: The inlet and outlet of the intestinal segment are precisely cut by setting the split surface to set the boundary conditions required for simulation analysis. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, inlet is the entrance and outlet is the exit.
[0106] 4. Divide the model into fluid domain and solid domain, and establish a bidirectional fluid-solid coupling model framework, including:
[0107] (41) The preprocessed model is imported into the Design Modeler module, and the solid domain (intestinal wall) is divided by the substract operation of the Boolean operation after shell extraction, as shown in Figure 4 As shown, the remaining part is preserved as the fluid domain (intestinal content fluid), such as Figure 5 shown.
[0108] (42) Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the Fluent module and the TransientStructual module are connected through the System Coupling module to perform bidirectional data transmission between the fluid domain and the solid domain.
[0109] 5. Fluid domain simulation settings: simulate multiphase flow content and set the fluid simulation model. In this embodiment, this step is completed by the Fluent module of Ansys Workbench software.
[0110] Specifically, the steps include:
[0111] (51) Import the model processed in step (41) into the Meshing module, suppress the solid domain, select the surface of the fluid domain to name the inlet, outlet, and fluid-solid coupling interface, select the tetrahedron method for meshing, and use Fluent as the solver. The final number of mesh units is 691442, and the mesh unit quality reaches 0.83415. The meshing results of the fluid domain are as follows: Figure 7 shown.
[0112] (52) Define the material properties of multiphase flow contents: In this embodiment, the simulated intestinal contents are set as incompressible gas-liquid two-phase flow, so the gas phase model is selected as the air model in the module material library, and the material parameters are: density is 1.225 kg / m 3 , the viscosity is 1.7894×10 -5 kg / (m·s), liquid phase selects custom material density and viscosity, density is 1000kg / m 3 , the viscosity is 0.005kg / (m·s).
[0113] (53) Define the fluid simulation model: mainly including the definition of turbulence model and multiphase flow model. This embodiment aims to simulate the colon flow field for a period of time after a meal, so the corresponding flow field model is: the chyme enters the colon cavity filled with air and containing a certain volume of chyme under the push of peristalsis. In combination with the content flow mentioned in step (52) as an incompressible fluid, the multiphase flow model uses the VOF model, with 2 phases, in which the main phase is set to the gas phase, the secondary phase is set to the liquid phase, the two-phase interaction is set to the surface tension model, and the surface tension coefficient is set to 0.075; due to the low velocity of the intestinal contents, the Reynolds number of the content flow is low, so the turbulence model is selected as the RNG k-ε turbulence model.
[0114] (54) Set initial conditions and boundary conditions: According to the flow field model of this embodiment mentioned in step (53), define the inlet condition as a velocity inlet, the inlet enters a liquid phase with a volume fraction of 1, and the velocity is 0.015 m / s, simulating the chyme entering the colon under the action of peristalsis; the outlet condition is a pressure outlet, and the outlet pressure is 0 Pa; set a unit marking area, and the area is initialized to a liquid phase with a volume fraction of 1 to simulate the retained chyme at the bottom of the colon before the inlet chyme enters, and the remaining area is initialized to a gas phase with a volume fraction of 1. After initialization, the gas volume fraction is as follows: Figure 8 shown.
[0115] (55) Set dynamic mesh: Define the dynamic mesh method of the fluid-solid coupling interface as system coupling, which is achieved through smoothing and re-meshing. Smoothing refers to a technical method that optimizes the position of mesh nodes during mesh deformation to make mesh deformation smoother, avoid inappropriate mesh distortion, and maintain mesh quality and geometric structure stability.
[0116] 6. Solid domain simulation settings: Set intestinal wall material parameters to simulate intestinal movement. This step is completed by the Transient Structual module of AnsysWorkbench software in this embodiment. Specifically, the following steps are included:
[0117] (61) Define the intestinal wall material properties: In this embodiment, the intestinal material is set as a linear elastic material, and the intestinal wall simulation material is defined by directly setting the material elastic modulus to 10 MPa, the Poisson's ratio to 0.48, and the material density to 2000 kg / m3.
[0118] (62) Import the model processed in step (41), suppress the fluid domain, and name the solid domain for the fluid-solid coupling interface. To simulate the real intestinal wall effect, set the solid domain, i.e. the intestinal wall thickness, to 0.01 m, and select the simulation material set in step (61) in the engineering material. Use the triangle method for meshing, the solver is NotlinearMachanical, and the final mesh unit number is 4465, the unit quality is 0.96148, and the solid domain meshing results are as follows: Fig. 9 shown.
[0119] (63) Set displacement boundary conditions to simulate the segmented contraction movement of the intestine. According to step (53), this embodiment simulates the flow field and sound field in the colon for a period of time after a meal. For a period of time after a meal, the segmented contraction is active, which can achieve full mixing of the contents and make a great contribution to the generation of bowel sounds. Therefore, this embodiment simulates segmented contraction with a contraction period of 4s, the contraction wavelength is set to 0.07m, and the contraction amplitude is 0.001m. This is achieved in the Transient Mechanical module by applying displacement boundary condition constraints on the wall. The specific simulation effect is as follows: Fig.10 As shown in the figure, Notlinear Mechanical and Transient Mechanical modules are the corresponding functional modules of Ansys software.
[0120] (64) Set up simple supports to prevent excessive deformation. Fig.11 The simple support constraints shown in the figure act on the appropriate areas of the colon entrance, colon exit, transition between ascending colon and transverse colon, and transition between transverse colon and descending colon, respectively, allowing the selected area to rotate but not to move. The support of physiological structures such as intestinal ligaments on the intestine is simulated to avoid excessive distortion and deformation of the intestinal wall during simulated movement.
[0121] (65) Set up a fluid-solid coupling interface to achieve two-way data transmission.
[0122] 7. Realize bidirectional fluid-solid coupling and simulate intestinal flow field.
[0123] Specifically, the fluid domain transmits the pressure data to the solid domain, and the solid domain transmits the interface node displacement information to the fluid domain. The end time is set to 4s, the time step is 0.0005s, the minimum number of iterations is 1, and the maximum number of iterations is 5. Thus, a bidirectional fluid-solid coupling simulation is realized, and the intestinal flow field simulation results are obtained, as shown in Figure 2. Fig.12 , Fig.13 As shown, the velocity vector diagrams of the two-phase fluid interface and the fluid-solid interface are shown respectively.
