A Double Layer Arterial Wall Mathematical Model Subjected To Pulsating Blood Pressure

The behavior of a double layer arterial transversal section is investigated under the effect of radial pulsating pressure. The model considers that the radial pressure follows an exponential rise exponential decay biphasic periodic function, mathematically represented by a Fourier series, simulating the blood pressure on its inner wall. The dependence of the arterial strain response on viscoelastic properties of each layer is represented. The dissipated power and strain energy rate are computed. The stress-strain response is modeled for each layer. Furthermore, the storage and loss moduli are deduced for different set of viscoelastic parameters.
