Abstract

AbstractIn this contribution, we present a combined material model which couples three aspects of the arterial wall: a smooth muscle model embracing a stretch‐dependent calcium function, residual stresses induced by growth, and fiber reorientation. The model enables the investigation of the respective influence of all three aspects on each other. For this purpose, simulation results of arterial rings under varying intravascular pressure are analyzed.
