Purpose: To review the use of biomechanical indices for the estimation of abdominal aortic
aneurysm (AAA) rupture risk, emphasizing their potential use in a clinical setting. Methods: A …

Three-D head geometrical models of eight healthy subjects and 11 hydrocephalus patients
were built using their CINE phase-contrast MRI data and used for computer simulations …

The advancement of ischaemic stroke treatment relies on resource-intensive experiments
and clinical trials. In order to improve ischaemic stroke treatments, such as thrombolysis and …

LDL concentration is believed to be responsible for plaque formation that leads to
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We conducted this study to investigate the effects of …

Abstract Low‐dimensional (1D or 0D) models can describe the whole human blood
circulation, for example, 1D distributed parameter model for the arterial network and 0D …

Aortic dissection is a serious pathological condition where tears in the aortic wall allow
blood to flow between layers of the aortic wall, separating tissue and creating a false lumen …

We study the effect of pulsatile flow on the transport of red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets
into aneurysm geometries with varying dome-to-neck aspect ratios (AR). We use a validated …

We aim to introduce a novel, inverse method for in vivo material parameter identification of
human abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), which could overcome one of the greatest …

One-dimensional arterial flow simulations are suitable to estimate the aortic pressure from
peripheral measurements in a patient-specific arterial network. This study introduces a …

The estimation of blood flow–induced loads occurring on the artery wall is affected by
uncertainties hidden in the complex interaction of the pulsatile flow, the mechanical …
