The stress-strain properties vary according to the specific pathology(e.g.arteriosclerosis,aneurism)and the tissue graft must be chosen correctly.Two models are proposed in this paper on the stress-strain characteristics.An extension for frequency-domain analysis is provided for one of the models.The comparison between vascular grafts and native tissue for carotid and thoracic arteries in pigs are in good agreement with results from literature.The proposed experimental method offers suitable parameters for identifying models which characterize both elasticity and stiffness properties of the analyzed tissues(stress-strain).The proposed models show good performance in characterizing the intrinsic material properties.展开更多
