An approach to consider the arterial residual stresses in modelling of a patient-specific artery

In this work, the residual stress state of a human common carotid artery is predicted using the so-called thermomechanical analogy approach. The purpose of the approach is to enable consistent mapping of residual stresses and the respective configuration from a circular arterial segment to a patient...
