Wall stiffness should be prioritized in carotid CFD models; hypothesis-generating for clinical WSS-based risk assessment.
Computational simulations suggest that arterial wall stiffness significantly impacts velocity profiles and wall shear stress in carotid bifurcations, while shear thinning rheological models have minimal effect.
Toloui et al. (2011) studied this question.
