Fig. 6.
Differences in time-average (TAWSS) and peak (WSSpeak) wall shear stress values derived from the analytical solution and velocity- or flow-based method under unsteady flow conditions in a cylindrical vessel (i.e., Womersley flow). The flow waveform is shown in Figure 2. Changes in (a, b) radius (TAWSSanalyt = 1.5 Pa) and (c,d) volumetric flow rate. *** indicates p < 0.001.
