| Abstract: | Intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is present in 75% of clinically-relevant abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) yet, despite much research effort, its role in AAA biomechanics remains unclear. The aim of this work is to further evaluate the biomechanics of ILT and determine if different ILT morphologies have varying mechanical properties. |
