Oscillatory Flow Has a Stereotypical Distribution in the Embryonic Heart

(A and B) Instantaneous flow field (blue flow arrows) and wall shear stress magnitude |τ| (color-coded dots marking the wall) during forward (A) and reversing (B) flow, as predicted by our model. Green arrows show the estimated wall velocity vectors imposed as boundary conditions.

(D and E) Velocity magnitude through the center of the AVC (D) and atrium (E) versus time. Negative velocities denote reversing flow. Solid red line, model prediction; black dots, in vivo particle tracking.

(F) Frequency content (up to f = 3f₁) of the WSS at several control points at the wall. τ_n is the amplitude of the frequency f = nf₁ (τ₀ and τ₁ correspond to the average shear stress and the fundamental frequency f₁, respectively).
