Hypothesis-generating for aortic wall stress mechanisms; leaves open relevance to human disease or interventions.
Numerical simulations of pulsatile flow in the aortic arch reveal complex vortex structures and high wall shear stress at the inside wall, providing insights into aortic hemodynamics.
Chang et al. (1985) studied Physiological pulsatile flows in the aortic arch. Numerical simulation was evaluated on Flow phenomena including secondary flows, vortex structures, and wall shear stress. Numerical simulations of physiological pulsatile flows in the aortic arch revealed complex secondary flows, cascaded vortex structures, and high wall shear stress at the inside wall.
