Research on tissues and body structures and biomaterials
Constitutive modeling of blood vessels
Project description:
Internal pressure-circumferential stretch relationship observed within inflation and extension of venous aorto-coronary bypass
Predictions of internal pressure within sample inflation based on found constitutive models for CABG tissue
Blood vessel walls exhibit complicated mechanical response to external loading; both material and geometrical nonlinearity, inelasticity and anisotropy are observed. Such complex behavior originates in internal structure and its arrangement (cellular and non-cellular components, layered character, fibrous arrangement, inter-component bonding). Efficient constitutive model which can capture not only observed phenomena but structural fundament as well is still in question.
Successful mathematical modeling involves experimental data describing material response. Tensile tests, inflation-extension tests and pressure-pulse tests are carried out in the laboratory.
Representative simulation of the inflation-extension response of male 38 years of age male abdominal aorta.
