Figure 2From: Rapid prototyping compliant arterial phantoms for in-vitro studies and device testingCompliance testing of aortic samples. Sample of the pressure-volume relationship resulting from a compliance test. The loop exhibits an area of hysteresis due to the viscoelastic behaviour of the material. Five data points, collected for the 0.7 mm thick āverticalā model, are shown at each dV, demonstrating the repeatability of the method.Back to article page
