Formation of Saccular Cerebral Aneurysms May Require Proliferation of the Arterial Wall: Computational Investigation
We have performed numerical simulations to examine saccular cerebral aneurysm formation at the outer curve of a bent artery. A U-shaped arterial geometry with torsion, which was modeled on part of the human internal carotid artery, has been employed. A new numerical model was proposed to take into a...
