A numerical study of the effect of varied blood pressure on the stability of carotid atherosclerotic plaque

BACKGROUND: Blood pressure (BP) is associated with early atherosclerosis and plaque rupture because the BP variability can significantly affect the blood flow velocity and shear stress over the plaque. However, the mechanical response of BP variability to the plaque remains unclear. Therefore, we in...
