Journal ArticleDOI
Significant differences in the material properties between aged human and porcine aortic tissues
Caitlin Martin,Thuy Pham,Wei Sun +2 more
TL;DR: Aged human aortic tissues were significantly stiffer than the corresponding porcine tissues in both the circumferential and longitudinal directions, which raises questions on the validity of using porCine models to investigate the biomechanics involved in PAV intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical characterization of ascending aortic aneurysm with concomitant bicuspid aortic valve and bovine aortic arch.
TL;DR: The BAV samples were thinnest, with less elastin than AsAA and BAA samples, which may be attributed to the loss of extensibility of these tissues at a low load, and the ultimate tensile strength of BAV and B AA samples were also found to decrease with age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictive biomechanical analysis of ascending aortic aneurysm rupture potential.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a predictive biomechanical analysis of ascending aortic aneurysm (AsAA) tissue to assess rupture risk on a patient-specific level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational Modeling of Cardiac Valve Function and Intervention
Wei Sun,Caitlin Martin,Thuy Pham +2 more
TL;DR: The advances in valve geometry reconstruction, tissue property modeling, and loading and boundary definitions for the purpose of realistic computational structural analysis of cardiac valve function and intervention are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of transcatheter heart valve biomaterials: Biomechanical characterization of bovine and porcine pericardium.
TL;DR: CBP tissue may be a more suitable material for TAV manufacturing than ABP tissue, and the differences between PP and BP tissues should be further investigated and suggest that they should not be used interchangeably in the manufacturing of TAV.
