Abstract

Modified Moens-Korteweg formulae have been developed for the pulse velocities in anisotropic elastic arteries of varying geometries. In particular, cylindrical straight, tapered and curved tubes have been considered. Numerical results indicate that the cylindrical tube formula can be applied in all cases and that the circumferential elastic modulus is the dominant elastic parameter.
