Journal ArticleDOI

The layered structure of coronary adventitia under mechanical load.

TL;DR: Fundamental microstructural data for coronary artery biomechanics is provided and is considered seminal for structural models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneous growth-induced prestrain in the heart.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that including the effects of prestrain reduces the left ventricular stiffness by up to 40%, thus facilitating the ventricular filling, which has a significant impact on cardiac function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical properties of sisal fiber reinforced high density polyethylene composites: Effect of fiber content, interfacial compatibilization, and manufacturing process

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of fiber content, interfacial compatibilization, and manufacturing process on the mechanical properties of sisal fiber reinforced high-density polyethylene (HDPE) composites was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Micromechanics Finite-Strain Constitutive Model of Fibrous Tissue.

TL;DR: A micromechanics-based constitutive model of fibrous tissue is developed to remove the affine assumption and to take into consideration the heterogeneous interactions between the fibers and the ground substance, based on the framework of a recently developed second-order homogenization theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biaxial deformation of collagen and elastin fibers in coronary adventitia.

TL;DR: The microstructural deformation-mechanical loading relation of the blood vessel wall is essential for understanding the overall mechanical behavior of vascular tissue in health and disease and will serve as a foundation for micromechanical models of the vessel wall.
