The Importance of Patient Specific Regionally Varying Wall Thickness in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Biomechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular condition where the use of a biomechanicsbased assessment for patientspecific risk assessment is a promising approach for clinical management of the disease. Among various ...
Fluid Structure Interaction Modeling of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms: The Impact of Patient Specific Inflow Conditions and Fluid/Solid Coupling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rupture risk assessment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) by means of biomechanical analysis is a viable alternative to the traditional clinical practice of using a critical diameter for recommending elective repair. ...
A Comparative Study of Biomechanical and Geometrical Attributes of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms in the Asian and Caucasian Populations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, we provide a quantitative assessment of the biomechanical and geometric features that characterize abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) models generated from 19 Asian and 19 Caucasian diameter-matched AAA patients. ...
