A Study on the Compliance of a Right Coronary Artery and Its Impact on Wall Shear Stress
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A computational model incorporating physiological motion and uniform transient wall deformation of a branchless right coronary artery (RCA) was developed to assess the influence of artery compliance on wall shear stress (WSS). Arterial geometry and deformation were derived from modern medical imaging techniques, whereas the blood flow was solved numerically employing a moving-grid approach using a well-validated in-house finite element code. The simulation results indicate that artery compliance affects the WSS in the RCA heterogeneously, with the distal region mostly experiencing these effects. Under physiological inflow conditions, coronary compliance contributed to phase changes in the WSS time history, without affecting the temporal gradient of the local WSS nor the bounds of the WSS magnitude. Compliance does not cause considerable changes to the topology of WSS vector patterns nor to the localization of WSS minima along the RCA. We conclude that compliance is not an important factor affecting local hemodynamics in the proximal region of the RCA while the influence of compliance in the distal region needs to be evaluated in conjunction with the outflow to the myocardium through the major branches of the RCA.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
