Sensitivity to entrance conditions of wall shear stress in a curved vessel
This study aims to numerically investigate the impact of entrance velocity distributions on wall shear stress in a simplified curved vessel model. The flow in a single‑curved vessel is simulated with Reynolds numbers adjusted to a Newtonian...

A phenomenological and multiscale modeling of arterial growth and remodeling under endofibrosis
High level endurance sports, like biking, may lead to a vascular pathology called endofibrosis. Its symptoms are an arterial wall thickening and a reduction of the artery lumen calibre. Cyclists are impacted in the iliac arteries due to a pinching and...
