Biomechanics of Arterial Smooth Muscle. : - Analyzing vascular adaptation of large elastic arteries using in vitro experiments and 3D finite element modeling.
A number of cardiovascular diseases (e.g. aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection and atherosclerosis) are associated with altered biomechanical properties in the vascular wall. This thesis studies vascular adaptation and its resulting alteration in biomechanical properties. Vascular adaptation refers to...
