A Model for Geometric and Mechanical Adaptation of Arteries to Sustained Hypertension
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study aimed to model phenomenologically the dynamics of arterial wall remodeling under hypertensive conditions. Sustained hypertension was simulated by a step increase in blood pressure. The ...
Separation of Arterial Pressure Waves Into Their Forward and Backward Running Components
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new separation technique has been developed to determine the forward and backward running arterial pressure wave components. It takes into account friction as well as nonlinear effects due ...
Experimental Investigation of the Distribution of Residual Strains in the Artery Wall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Arterial wall stresses are thought to be a major determinant of vascular remodeling both during normal growth and throughout the development of occlusive vascular disease. A completely physiologic ...
