Increasing the cardiovascular disease had led to the researchers to investigate the blood flow more than before. In this article the effects of artery elasticity on hemodynamic parameters with concerning the interaction between blood and the vessel’s wall had been investigated. The wall shear stress had changed with different times and cannot send the congestion of the vessels. From this point the oscillatory shear index had been said the shear stress without the time average. In this study a 3D model from the left coronary bifurcation with 4 models of wall had been investigated. The result from a pulsatile flow from a non-newtonian flow with the method of two ways coupling by using the method of arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian had been calculated. The observation had showed a 13 percent decreasing in the profile of velocities at the bifurcation place in that in the hyperelastic model had the highest subtraction. Also by increasing the toughness of the wall the velocity profile and oscillator shear stress were increased. The average shear stress in the model of rigid had showed the 28 percent difference in comparison with the hyperelastic model. By comparing the results with clinical data showed that, the places with average shear stress 1.10 pa and less than that with presenting the oscillatory shear index is more than 0.3 that can be a potential dangerous places in forming atherosclerosis oscillatory shear index plaque especially in the posterior after the bifurcation. Meanwhile in the hyperelastic model the results are more precise than the other models.
