Dissociation of Carotid and Forearm Pressure Decay Constants (tau), Windkessel Compliances, and Pulse Wave Velocities: Implications for Circulatory Models
Windkessel (WK) models have often been used to simulate the arterial circulation. We studied a critical characteristic of WK function, the arterial pressure-decay constant tau, to test whether all arterial regions share the same WK characteristics, which should theoretically be related to arterial s...
