Patient-specific predictions of aneurysm growth and remodeling in the ascending thoracic aorta using the homogenized constrained mixture model
S Jamaleddin Mousavi, Solmaz Farzaneh, Stéphane Avril
In its permanent quest of mechanobiological homeostasis, our vascula-ture significantly adapts across multiple length and time scales in various physiological and pathological cond…
Gradient-enhanced continuum models of healing in damaged soft tissues
Yiqian He, Di Zuo, Klaus Hackl +3
Healing of soft biological tissue is the process of self-recovering or self-repairing the injured or damaged extracellular matrix (ECM). Healing is assumed to be stress-driven, wit…
Review of the Essential Roles of SMCs in ATAA Biomechanics
Claudie Petit, S. Jamaleddin Mousavi, Stéphane Avril
Aortic Aneurysms are among the most critical cardiovascular diseases. The present study is focused on Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms (ATAA). The main causes of ATAA are common…
Aortic and arterial mechanics
Stéphane Avril
Knowledge of the mechanical properties of the aorta is essential as important concerns regarding the treatment of aortic pathologies, such as atherosclerosis, aneurysms and dissect…
Multiscale Mechanical Behavior of Large Arteries
Claire Morin, Witold Krasny, Stéphane Avril
The mechanical integrity of arteries is of prime importance, for a proper oxygen and nutrients delivery to all organs. To optimize their mechanical properties, healthy arteries exh…
Characterization of chemoelastic effects in arteries using digital volume correlation and optical coherence tomography
Víctor A. Acosta Santamaría, María Flechas Garcí, Jérôme Molimard +1
Understanding stress-strain relationships in arteries is important for fundamental investigations in mechanobiology. Here we demonstrate the essential role of chemoelasticity in de…
