Wall Stress Distributions in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms Do Not Correlate With Symptoms
Preprint
Full-text available
  • Apr 2019
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a permanent and irreversible dilation of the lower region of the aorta. It is typically an asymptomatic condition that if left untreated can expand to the point of rupture. Mechanically-speaking, rupture of an artery occurs when the local wall stress exceeds the local wall strength. It is therefore understandable...
