Abstract excerpt
We recently reported a mechanistic model to link micro-architectural information to the delamination strength (Sd) of human ascending thoracic aorta (ATA). That analysis demonstrated that the number density (N) and failure energy (Uf) of the radially-oriented collagen fibers contribute to the Sd...
