Abstract

Complex problems require multidisciplinary studies. Cardiovascular diseases, which are closely related to our health and have a very complex structure, attract the attention of many researchers from different disciplines. In this work, experimental, numerical and analytical studies that can be considered as breaking points in the field of arteriosclerosis are included and the contribution of these studies to the literature is emphasized. The place of analytical studies in current studies is presented with examples. One of the aims of the study is to draw attention to the importance of the combination of methods in overcoming the difficulties.
