What is The Correct Mechanical Model of Aorta Artery

Aorta artery is the most vital artery in humans and almost all animals. Aorta artery is also the largest artery in human body. This artery is the first artery coming out from the left ventricle of the heart and extending down to the abdomen, where it splits into two smaller iliac arteries. Aorta art...

Description
Summary:Aorta artery is the most vital artery in humans and almost all animals. Aorta artery is also the largest artery in human body. This artery is the first artery coming out from the left ventricle of the heart and extending down to the abdomen, where it splits into two smaller iliac arteries. Aorta artery conveys oxygenated blood to all parts of the body so that this artery is the one, which is under the influence of the highest blood pressure. It is well known that aorta artery consists of three main layers, which cover five sub-layers. In this paper, we aimed to show the difference between functionally graded material (FGM) and laminated composite material and to show which model fits to the structure of aorta artery.
