Abstract
⺠We modeled arteriole buckling behavior associated with growth and remodeling. ⺠Arteriole length growth decreases the buckling pressure and buckling wavelength. ⺠Radius growth decreases the buckling pressure but increases buckling wavelength. ⺠Increasing wall thickness increases the buckling pressure and buckling wavelength. ⺠Adaptive growth makes arterioles prone to buckling & leads to tortuous collaterals.
