Finite element modelling of abdominal aortic aneurysm

An aneurysm is an abnormal bulging or widening of a portion of an artery due to weakness in the wall of the aortic wall. This is happening when the mechanical stress exceeds the tensile strength of the tissue. Aneurysm can happens anywhere in parts of our body as long there is an aorta. Nowadays, an...
