Figure 4

Plots of PWS and FSS distributions on a bifurcation cut surface and a longitudinal cut surface from FSI model of the plaque sample given in Figure 1showing PWS and FSS behaviors. (a) Plaque wall stress on the bifurcation cut; (b) flow shear stress on the bifurcation cut; (c) plaque wall stress on a longitudinal cut; (d) flow shear stress on a longitudinal cut.
