P6.04 PULSE VOLUME HOMEOSTASIS AS A HYPOTHESIZED PRINCIPLE OF ARTERIAL DESIGN

The increase of arterial volume during the systole (‘pulse volume’) is essential for buffering the pulsatile ventricular output. Objectives: Deriving some mechanical properties of arteries by assuming pulse volume homeostasis. Methods: A model that includes a generalized nonlinear relationship bet...
