A computational model for the evolution of a saccular cerebral aneurysm of the internal
carotid artery is developed. The artery is modelled as a two-layered non-linear elastic …

We present a fluid–solid-growth model for the evolution of a saccular cerebral aneurysm on
the internal carotid sinus artery. The model utilises a realistic constitutive model of the …

Abstract Effects of the three-dimensional residual stresses on the mechanical properties of
arterial walls are analyzed in this paper, based on the model which considered the bending …

Several optical-based techniques for measuring the sample thickness (ST) of soft tissues
have been proposed in the literature to overcome the limits of hand-operated procedures …

Growth, residual stresses and mechanical responses of arterial walls under the inner
pressure are investigated within the framework of a finite deformation hyper-elasticity theory …

Elastin is essential to accommodate physiological deformation and provide elastic support
for blood vessels. As a long-lived extracellular matrix protein, elastin can suffer from …

Purpose: There are two families of fibres taking part in the process of mechanical loads
transfer, ie elastin and collagen fibres. Their number, spatial arrangement and specific …
