In silico characterization of the effects of size, distribution, and modulus contrast of aortic focal softening on pulse wave propagations
Examining the change in regional stiffness of the arterial wall may prove as a reliable method for detecting various cardiovascular diseases. As suggested by Moens–Korteweg relationship, the pulse wave velocity (PWV) along the arteries has been shown to correlate to the stiffness of the arterial wal...
