Length–force and volume–pressure relationships of arteries123

TLDR

A method was developed to measure force–length diagrams at constant internal pressures and volume–pressure diagrams at constant segment lengths in arterial segments. Empirical formulas were derived to capture the length–force and volume–pressure relationships.

Abstract

A technique was developed for the measurement on arterial segments of: 1. Force-length diagrams at different constant internal pressures. 2. Volume-pressure diagrams at different constant lengths of the segments. Empirical formulas, which contain a m
