This paper aims to the radial compliance of three kinds of vascular prostheses and the pig's carotid based on the dynamic-simulated condition. The radial compliance of knitted structure vascular prostheses with crimps ranged from 2.52% to 0.94%/100 mmHg, which was superior to e-FFFE and woven prostheses', ranged from 0.73% to 0.31%/100 mmHg and from 0.81% to 0.22%/100 mmHg. But comparing with the radial compliance of pig's carotid, ranged from 7.21% to 10.04% /100 mmHg, there was a big gap between them. And also the trend of the radial compliance of vascular prostheses was different from the real pig's carotid. There is a lot of work left to improve the radial compliance, not only to change the vascular prostheses' compliance, but also to meet with the real vascular.展开更多

It is found that Segrd-Silberberg effect will not respond to the pulsation of the flow when the Reynolds number is relatively high. However, when the Reynolds number is low enough, Segrd-Silberberg effect disappears. In the steady flow, different initial position leads to different equilibrium positions. In a pulsating flow, different frequencies of pulsation also cause different equilibrium positions. Particularly, when the frequency of pulsation is closed to the human heart rate, Segrd-Silberberg effect presents again. The evolutions of velocity, rotation, and trajectory of the particle are investigated to find the dynamics of such abnormal phenomenon.展开更多
