Figure 9From: Artery buckling affects the mechanical stress in atherosclerotic plaquesBuckling deflection plotted as a function of lumen pressure for the artery with an asymmetric plaque (baseline model) and its several variations of stiffness of calcified tissue, stiffness of lipid pool and stenosis severity. The baseline model had material properties as per equation (2) and had a stenosis severity of 75% by cross-sectional area.Back to article page
