Figure 3

The relationship between critical mechanical conditions around the neovessels and their distance from the main arterial lumen. (a) local maximum principal stress (Stress-P1) at systole when neovessels without red blood cells surrounded; (b) local maximum principal stretch (Stretch-P1) at systole when neovessels without red blood cells surrounded; (c) local maximum principal stress (Stress-P1) at systole when neovessels with red blood cells surrounded; (d) local maximum principal stretch (Stretch-P1) at systole when neovessels with red blood cells surrounded.
