Effects of Reynolds and Womersley Numbers on the Hemodynamics of Intracranial Aneurysms

Figure 8

Evolution of the nondimensional out-of-plane vorticity and in-plane velocity vectors for patient-specific IAs with different and ; (upper row) and ; (middle row) and ; and (lower row) and at various time instants during the cycle: (a) , (b) , (c) , (d) , (e) , and (f) . R1 depicts the vortex ring in patient-specific IAs and the green cross shows the location of the maximum -criteria on the midplane of IAs.
