Abstract
A finite element analysis program was developed for an incompressible transversely isotropic hyperelastic material to describe the anisotropic deformation of blood vessels. The elastic tensor, which relates the Truesdell rate of the Cauchy stress tensor with the rate of deformation tensor, was derived for an exponential type of strain energy density function. To validate the implemented model, a uniaxial compression test was carried out with one finite element. The result of the finite element analysis showed a good agreement with analytical solutions.
