On a fluid-structure interaction problem for plaque growth
arXiv:2110.00042 · doi:10.1088/1361-6544/aca5e1
Abstract
We study a free-boundary fluid-structure interaction problem with growth, which arises from the plaque formation in blood vessels. The fluid is described by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation, while the structure is considered as a viscoelastic incompressible neo-Hookean material. Moreover, the growth due to the biochemical process is taken into account. Applying the maximal regularity theory to a linearization of the equations, along with a deformation mapping, we prove the well-posedness of the full nonlinear problem via the contraction mapping principle.
