Effects of the Haemodynamic Stimulus on the Location of Carotid Plaques Based on a Patient-Specific Mechanobiological Plaque Atheroma Formation Model
In this work, we propose a mechanobiological atheroma growth model modulated by a new haemodynamic stimulus. To test this model, we analyse the development of atheroma plaques in patient-specific bifurcations of carotid arteries for a total time of 30 years. In particular, eight geometries (left or...
