On the mechanical stability of growing arteries

Arteries are modeled, within the framework of nonlinear elasticity, as incompressible two-layer cylindrical structures that are residually stressed through differential growth. These structures are loaded by an axial force, internal pressure and have nonlinear, anisotropic, hyperelastic response to...
