Abstract:
Assuming the arterial wall is homogeneous, incompressible, isotropic and elastic, a stress-strain relation has been presented for a rat's abdominal aorta. As an illustrating example, the problem of simultaneous inflation and the axial stretch of a cylindrical artery under physiological loading has been solved and then the material coefficients are determined by comparing theoretical results with the existing experiments. The result indicates that the maximum deviation between the theory and experiment for various pressure levels is 3.7% which seems to be a good approximation of theory to the experiments. The variation of circumferential stress and the incremental pressure modulus with inner pressure are also depicted in the work.
