| Abstract | The main hemodynamic forces acting on the vessel wall are the wall shear stress (WSS), caused by the friction of the flowing blood on the endothelial surface, and the circumferential stress caused by blood pressure, acting on endothelial cells and on smooth muscle cells. Experimental studies on the effects of disturbed flow contribute to our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of vascular diseases, helping in ameliorating therapeutic interventions. The perivascular placement of a silastic collar around the carotid artery represents an established model of intimal thickening in rabbits and mice for testing mechanistic hypothesis on the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and for assessment of anti-atherosclerotic interventions. In this work we adopted a one-way coupled, fluid–structure interaction approach to investigate the immediate fluid-dynamic alterations induced by perivascular collar placement on rabbit common carotid artery and establish a correlation between the early atherogenic events and the modifications of the hemodynamic environment. The results from this computational study help quantify the role of the local fluid-dynamics among the possible factors promoting the atherogenic processes in this experimental model. In particular, values of WSS and circumferential stress lower than in the physiological situation were found in the arterial region between the two collar-vessel contact points. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
