Abstract:The Constrained Mixture Model (CMM) is a novel approach to describe arterial wall mechanics, whose formulation is based on a referential physiological state. The CMM considers the arterial wall as a mixture of load-bearing constituents, each of them with characteristic mass fraction, material properties, and deposition stretch levels from its stress-free state to the in-vivo configuration. Although some reports of this model successfully assess its capabilities, they barely explore experimental approaches to m… Show more
