Week 6

During week 6, group 12 started to prepare for the end of the term. 

This week we finished the hinges on both the ring and the leaflets. Thankfully, our hinge design was successful and we were finally able to assemble the artificial valve. The model was sent to the 3D printer.

We also learned more about the Ansys CFX program that we will use to analyse the movement of blood through the valve.

Finally, we started to work on our final presentation and report.
