Abstract
Together with biochemical factors, fluid mechanical factors play a role in atherogenesis and the deposition of blood platelets at bends and bifurcations in human arteries. Hence, flow patterns were investigated in a simplified 3-dimensional model ofThis publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
