Research Abstract |
The imitation system of human circulatory organ was developed and used to evaluate low invasive measuring method of the mechanical characteristics of artery. Then the identification method of the characteristics was developed by using pulsating deformation and internal pressure of the silicone rubber tube specimen which imitates artery. Furthermore, another identification method of the characteristics is also developed by imitating sphygmopalpation. Finally, the identified characteristics were applied to develop the numerical simulation environment with the consideration of artery stiffness.
