Pulsation of a blood pump of totally implantable artificial heart is simulated in this research. A finite element mesh for the complex model isgenerated by the Laplace-equation based mesh moving algorithm. ArbitraryLagrangian Eulerian (ALE) finite element formulation is employed for thefluid, and the generalized conforming flat shell element is used for thegeometrically nonlinear analysis of the diaphragm. The strong coupling method and some stabilization techniques are used in order to cope with thestrong dependence between the fluid and the structure.
