Abstract:An aneurysm's rupture is commonly associated with its maximum diameter, yet biomechanical studies emphasize the significant influence of mechanical wall shear stress (WSS) in this process. This study focuses on two models of aortic aneurysms: abdominal aortic aneurysm and descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. Five cases, comprising two for model 1 and three for model 2, are examined to explore both axisymmetric and asymmetric shapes, as patient geometry may manifest as either fusiform (axisymmetric) or saccular… Show more
