Abstract

We present the development and application of a three-dimensional Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN) framework for the investigation of haemodynamic behaviour in the human aorta. The model incorporates a time-resolved simulation of pulsatile blood flow over a two-minute interval, enabling the extraction of pressure and velocity fields with high temporal fidelity. The mechanical stress exerted on the aortic wall was quantified through Laplace's law, with temporal averaging applied to derive representative stress distributions. This approach circumvents the computational overhead associated with conventional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods by eliminating mesh generation and exploiting the automatic differentiation capabilities inherent to neural networks. The proposed methodology demonstrates that PINNs can serve as an efficient and accurate alternative for modelling complex vascular flow phenomena, offering significant advantages in scalability and computational cost reduction while maintaining physical consistency.
