Stress-strain analysis of a sclerotic artery during angioplasty
Trtík, Adam ; Fuis, Vladimír (referee) ; Burša, Jiří (advisor)
This bachelor thesis focuses on an analytical calculation of maximum stress and deformation in arterial wall suffering from atherosclerosis during angioplasty and compares this value to the stress in wall of both healthy and sclerotic artery loaded by normal systolic pressure. Finally, the results are compared with corresponding model using the finite element method. In the theoretical part, the histology of arteries, their biomechanical properties and pathogenesis of atherosclerosis itself are briefly described.
