Rate-dependent mechanical behaviour of semilunar valves under biaxial deformation: From quasi-static to physiological loading rates

TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that the stress-stretch curves obtained from specimens under physiological rates too are markedly different to those at sufficiently lower rates and at quasi-static conditions.

Layer-Specific Distributed Collagen Fiber Orientations in Human Arteries, From Thoracic Aorta to Common Iliac

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the well established method of polarized microscopy on picrosirius red stained tissue samples and a dispersion model to quantify over 37000 measured layer-specific 3D fiber orientations of 11 human thoracic and abdominal aortas and common iliac arteries.
