  • Title: Flow visualization in a mold of an atherosclerotic human abdominal aorta.
    Author: Walburn FJ, Sabbah HN, Stein PD.
    Journal: J Biomech Eng; 1981 Aug; 103(3):168-70. PubMed ID: 7278194.
    Abstract:
    Flow in a mold of an atherosclerotic human abdominal aorta and common iliac arteries was studied by flow visualization at a mean Reynolds number of 500 during both pulsatile and steady flow. Flow separation and transient flow reversals were found distal to atherosclerotic plaques during pulsatile flow; whereas flow separation resulting in regions of permanent eddies were observed distal to plaques only during steady flow.
