Time-averaged reduction in aorta wall shear stress as a function of diverter angle for three diverter lengths. Here, the renal branching angle (RBA) is 60°. This stress reduction fraction is calculated by normalizing the diverter-associated aorta wall shear stress by the diverter-free aorta wall shear stress, averaged over a complete cardiac cycle, and subtracted from unity.
