Abstract: The nonlinear elastic response of large arteries subjected to finite deformations due to action of biaxial principal stresses, is described by simple constitutive equations. Generalized measures ...

Abstract: A method is presented to assess the functional capabilities of plated osteotomized canine femora as load bearing structures and to quantify their healing status. In this method the osteotomized ...

Abstract: The phenomenon of high-amplitude inflation waves resulting from a sharp axial acceleration of the aorta, as may ocur in road accidents, is investigated theoretically. The aorta is modeled as ...
