Prediction of the biomechanical effects of compression therapy on deep veins using finite element modelling
Clinicians generally assume that Medical Compression Stockings (MCS) work by reducing
vein luminal diameter and, in this way, help to prevent blood pooling. Conflicting results …

Finite Element simulation of buckling-induced vein tortuosity and influence of the wall constitutive properties
The mechanisms giving rise to vein tortuosity, which is often associated with varicosis, are
poorly understood. Recent works suggest that significant biological changes in the wall of …
