As the interaction between tissue adaptation and the mechanical condition within tissues is complex, mathematical models are desired to study this interrelation. In this study, a mathematical model is presented to investigate the interplay between collagen architecture and mechanical loading conditi
For treating arterial stenosis, caused by e.g. artherosclerotic plaque, the so-called balloon-dilation (c.f. angioplasty) is employed in most cases. Herein, high internal pressure (3-12 bar) is applied to the infected artery. During this process damage effects are induced in the arterial wall which
The vasculature consists of a complex network of vessels ranging from large arteries to arterioles, capillaries, venules, and veins. This network is vital for the supply of oxygen and nutrients to tissues and the removal of carbon dioxide and waste products from tissues. Because of its primary role
