Multiobjective Optimization of Rotodynamic Blood Pumps: The Use Case of a Cavopulmonary Assist Device

Abstract Comprehensive optimization of rotodynamic blood pumps (RBPs) requires the consideration of three partially conflicting objectives: size, hemocompatibility, and motor efficiency. Optimizing these individual objectives independently, the potential of multiobjective..
