Simulating flow induced migration in vascular remodelling
Fig 8
A) Change in geometry due to remodelling when overlaying the real initial and the real final shapes (after four hours) of the vessels without computational simulation. B) Error in the final shape with a model based on random migration. C) Overlay of the final predicted shape based on the Grégorie’s model. D) Overlay of the final predicted shape using our model. Similarity of the images can be compared by their dH (with smaller dH representing a better prediction). The parameters used for this model: α = 100, β = 40, ζ = 0, ω = 20, η = 0.1, κ = 20, βav = 100, ωav = 10, and κav = 10. Scale bar = 100 μm.
