The elastic properties of the arteries are essential for blood flow. The pressure in the arteries increases and arterial walls stretch when the blood is pumped out of the heart. When the aortic valve shuts, the pressure in the arteries drops and the arterial walls relax to maintain the blood flow.
The equations of linear elasticity. 5.1 Summary of equations. Strain-displacement relations: eij = (ui;j. uj;i) Equilibrium equations/equations of motion: @2ui. ij;j + Fi = @t2. (5.1) (5.2) Constitutive equations: (5.3) 5.2. ij = ijekk + 2 eij. Displacement formulation: The Navier-Lame equations. Solve for the displacements: @2ui.
Keywords: Arteries; Mechanical properties elasticity 1. Introduction It is well known that the elasticity of materials is expressed in Hooke’s law as follows: Tensile stress of a solid is proportional to the amount of deformation, provided the deformation is not permanent. Hooke’s law applied to an elastic bar of length l can be expressed ...
21 Ιουν 2024 · The elastic recoil of the vascular wall helps to maintain the pressure gradient that drives the blood through the arterial system. An elastic artery is also known as a conducting artery, because the large diameter of the lumen gives it a low resistance and enables it to accept a large volume of blood from the heart which is conducted to smaller ...
This activity has two parts. In part A students stretch blood vessels (a piece of artery and a piece of vein) and measure how elastic they are. In part B they look at the histology of the blood vessels using a microscope.
Part A: Elastic recoil in arteries and veins. Suspend a ring of artery from a hook on a clamp stand. Use a metre rule to record the length of the ring once the mass carrier has been attached to the free end of the ring. Attach a 10 g mass (see Figure 1) and record the length of the ring after the mass is added.
1 Μαΐ 2013 · The first techniques, developed to evaluate arterial stiffness, use indirect measurements such as pulse wave velocity or the analysis of variations in intra-arterial pressure and volume to estimate arterial stiffness.
