Pictorial description of segment of the artery with overlapping stenosis.

(a)   Geometry of the segment of an artery with overlapping stenosis

(b) Shapes of the overlapping stenosis in the peripheral layer and core regions for different angles of tapering at 𝑡=0^∘

(c) Changes in the shape of the arterial geometry in a time cycle at 𝑧=2.3 and 𝜓=−0.1
