Nonlinear Dynamics of Human Aortas for Material Characterization

Evaluating the nonlinear dynamics of human descending thoracic aortas is essential for building the next generation of vascular prostheses. This study characterizes the nonlinear dynamics, viscoelastic material properties, and fluid-structure interaction of 11 ex-vivo human descending thoracic aorta...
