A comparison of modelling techniques for computing wall stress in abdominal aortic aneurysms

Description : BACKGROUND: Aneurysms, in particular abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), form a significant portion of cardiovascular related deaths. There is much debate as to the most suitable tool for rupture prediction and interventional surgery of AAAs, and currently maximum diameter is used clinically as the de...

A finite element analysis rupture index (FEARI) as an additional tool for abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture prediction

Description : Currently, abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), which are a permanent dilation of the aorta, are treated surgically when the maximum transverse diameter surpasses 5.5cm. AAA rupture occurs when the locally acting wall stress exceeds the locally acting wall strength. There is a need to review the curre...

Vessel asymmetry as an additional diagnostic tool in the assessment of abdominal aortic aneurysms

Description : Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is believed to occur when the local mechanical stress exceeds the local mechanical strength of the wall tissue. On the basis of this hypothesis, the knowledge of the stress acting on the wall of an unruptured aneurysm could be useful in determining the risk of...

An experimental and numerical comparison of the rupture locations of an abdominal aortic aneurysm

Description : PURPOSE: To identify the rupture locations of idealized physical models of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) using an in-vitro setup and to compare the findings to those predicted numerically. METHODS: Five idealized AAAs were manufactured using Sylgard 184 silicone rubber, which had been mechanically...

The use of silicone materials to model abdominal aortic aneurysm behaviour

Description : This paper aims to identify the rupture locations of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Dow Corning Sylgard 184 was mechanically characterised. Five idealised models were then manufactured using this silicone rubber which were subsequently inflated to rupture with the images recorded using a high speed cam...
