Abstract

The main objective of the work was to prepare the analysis of blood flow through the arteries taking into account the mechanical properties of the vessel wall. The mechanical properties of the specimens were determined using a testing machine MTS Insight 2, and digital image correlation (DIC). The developed numerical model allowed the assessment of the state of stress and deformation of the walls while the blood flow through the physiologically correct aorta.
