Abstract
Initiation of aneurysm is modeled in an idealized three-layered abdominal aorta model. Linear elastic material property is chosen for the vessel. Fluid-structure interaction between the blood and the vessel is included in the study. Physiological boundary conditions are applied at the inlet and outlet of the model. Aneurysm initiation is achieved by decreasing the Young’s modulus of elasticity in a circular ring in the media of the model. Wall shear stress on the blood-vessel interface and through the vessel thickness is compared between the aneurysm initiated and healthy abdominal aorta.
