“…Experimental and numerical investigation of these relationships has been the subject of recent reviews (Caro, 2001;Liepsch, 2002). Much of the early numerical modelling was focused on the carotid artery bifurcation (Perktold and Resch, 1990;Perktold et al, 1991b;Perktold et al, 1991a), but, recently, this focus has shifted to the right coronary artery, both in terms of simulation (Krams et al, 1997;Kirpalani et al, 1999;van Langenhove et al, 2000;Myers et al, 2001;Wentzel et al, 2003;Zeng et al, 2003) and experimentally (Krams et al, 1997;Ojha et al, 2001;Feldman et al, 2002;Zhu et al, 2003).…”
