Abstract: Intracranial aneurysms are nowadays treated with endovascular flow diverter devices to avoid sac rupture. This study explores how different linear and quadratic hydrodynamic resistance parameters reduce the flow in the sac for five patient-specific sidewall aneurysms.The 125 performed blood flow simulations included the stents using a Darcy-Forcheimer porous layer approach based on real-life stent characteristics. Time- and space-averaged velocity magnitudes were strongly affected by the linear coefficient with a power-law relationship. Quadratic coefficients alter the flow in a minor way due to the low-velocity levels in the aneurysm sac and neck region.
