Modelling the mechanical response of elastin for arterial tissue.
We compare two constitutive models proposed to model the elastinous constituents of an artery. Holzapfel and Weizsäcker [1998. Biomechanical behavior of the arterial wall and its numerical characterization. Comput. Biol. Med. 28, 377-392] attribute a neo-Hookean response, i.e. Psi=c(I(1)-3)), to the...
