A pseudo-strain energy function (pseudo-SEF) describing the biomechanical properties of large conduit arteries under the influence of vascular smooth muscle (VSM) tone is proposed. In contrast to previous models that include the effects of smooth muscle co ...

Identification of a Strain Energy Function (SEF) is used when describing the complex mechanical properties of soft biological tissues such as the arterial wall. Classic SEFs, such as the one proposed by Chuong and Fung (J. Biomech. Eng. 105(3) (1983) 268), ...

Vascular remodeling is an adaptive response to variations in the hemodynamic environment acting on the arterial wall. Remodeling translates into changes of structure, geometry and mechanical properties of the artery. Our aim was to study the remodeling res ...

Previous research in arterial remodeling in response to changes in blood pressure seldom included both hyper- and hypotension. To compare the effects of low and high pressure on arterial remodeling and vascular smooth muscle tone and performance, we have u ...
Acute and long-term (up to 56 days) evolution of geometry, structural properties, vascular smooth muscle (VSM) tone and histomorphometric properties of the rat common carotid arteries under induced hypertension were investigated. Hypertension was induced i ...
Stiffening of the aorta with progressing age leads to decrease of aortic compliance and thus to an increase of pulse pressure amplitude. Using a strain energy function (SEF) which takes into account the composition of the arterial wall, we have studied the ...
With progressing age, large arteries diminish their longitudinal stretch, which in extreme cases results in tortuosity. Increased age is also associated with loss of vessel distensibility. We measured pressure-diameter curves from muscular porcine carotid ...
