The diploma thesis deals with the assessment of the prediction of brain aneurysm rupture based on its geometrical and material properties. In the first part of the thesis there is a~detailed research study of cardiovascular systems with a focus on the cerebral artery and aneurysm occurring on their bifurcates. The second part of the thesis is focused on the creation of two models of arterial cerebral bifurcation with the presence of aneurysm and on obtaining their geometry in unloaded state. Emphasis is placed on the most realistic constitutive model of the artery wall material based on real data from uniaxial tensile tests and on a suitably chosen blood pressure load. This blood pressure may be step-changed, for example, in bungee jumping. In the work, a calculation of the increase in blood pressure during the step-change is performed, which is subsequently used in calculations of tension in the wall of the cerebral aneurysm. In conclusion, the risk of rupture is evaluated in two model idealized brain aneurysms and a discussion of the credibility of the results is given.
