The mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of the human cardiovascular system is playing nowadays an important role in the comprehension of the genesis and development of cardiovascular diseases. In this paper we deal with two problems of 3D modelling and simulation in this field, which are

✦ Synopsis
We present a new time-splitting scheme for the numerical simulation of fluid-structure interaction between blood flow and vascular walls. This scheme deals in a successful way with the problem of the added mass effect. The scheme is modular and it embodies the stability properties of implicit schemes at the low computational cost of loosely coupled ones.

The investigation of coupled fluid-structure systems, subjected to dynamic loads, calls for the use of discrete techniques such as the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). This paper reports on the development of a FEM-BEM coupling procedure, where finite elements are u
