A Hemodynamic-Based Evaluation of Applying Different Types of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts to Coronary Artery Aneurysms by Haoran Wang, Hitomi Anzai, Youjun Liu, Aike Qiao, Jinsheng Xie, Makoto Ohta

“…To do this, eight three-dimensional models were constructed, representing application of SVGs and LIMA grafts to CAAs (whether ligated or not) with diameters two, three, and five times the normal diameter, to perform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. The lumped-parameter model (LPM) was coupled to the boundary of the 3D models which increase the complexity of the simulation, but it can ensure the stability of the simulation boundary conditions. …”

Some relationships between the peak stresses and the local strain energy density for cracks subjected to mixed-mode (I+II) loading by G. Meneghetti, A. Campagnolo, F. Berto

“…The evaluation of the SIFs from a numerical analysis of the local stress field usually requires very refined meshes and then large computational effort. The usefulness of the PSM-based expressions is that (i) only the elastic peak stresses numerically evaluated at the crack tip are needed and not a set of stress–distance data; (ii) the employed meshes are rather coarse if compared to those necessary for the evaluation of the whole local stress field. …”
