Marek Netušil - A Mathematical Model of an Arterial Wall

Date: 27/06/2014 12:20
Place: Seminární místnost KNM
Elastic arteries are significantly prestretched in axial direction and
this has great influence on the mechanical behavior during the
pressure cycle. Our study presents results of a simulation of the
inflation-extension behavior and comparisson of several different
models of the wall. The constitutive parameters and geometries for 17
aortas adopted from the literature were supplemented with initial
axial prestretches obtained from the statistics of 365 autopsy
measurements.
