Age-related changes in longitudinal prestress in human abdominal aorta
Author: Horný L.; Adámek T.; Žitný R.
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2013)Studies on the influence of aging on the longitudinal mechanical response of elastic arteries are rare, though longitudinal behavior may have a significant effect on pressure pulse transmission. Our study was designed to ... -
Constitutive modeling of human saphenous veins at overloading pressures
Author: Veselý J.; Horný L.; Chlup H.; Adámek T.; Krajíček M.; Žitný R.
(Elsevier Science, 2015)In the present study, inflation tests with free axial extension of 15 human vena saphena magna were conducted ex vivo to obtain data suitable for multi-axial constitutive modeling at overloading conditions (pressures up ... -
Preservation of tangent modulus of pericardial tissue during cold storage
Author: Gultová E.; Horný L.; Chlup H.; Žitný R.; Adámek T.; Kulvajtová M.
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)We have performed uniaxial tensile tests with human pericardium in order to identify the effect of a storage time on the passive mechanical response. Mechanical response was modelled using simple Fung´s type form of the ...
