Thanks Nidum. To clarify: I am testing an artificial artery, which I am analysing in the way I described above (circumferential stretch). I am trying to compare this data to another group's study, which tested a 'natural' artery with burst pressure testing. Could you expand on 'FE models'?

Thanks for the reply Kevin. I haven't been able to find anything that helps me though - ASTM standards is a bit of a rabbit hole and most of the articles need to be paid for. Unless you can point me to a specific reference or document?

I am a medical researcher with little physics background but currently completing a study of the physical characteristics of arteries. I am trying to compare the stress-strain curve from my study with that of other studies. The problems are 1) the dimensions of the arteries in these other...

Thank you, I hadn't considered that. Can you recommend a good source for a beginner with only physics 101 to begin to understand relativity?

Thank you fgor your response. To continue your fish analogy: Imagine the fish is in a tank. He looks toward the edge of his known universe to find an exact replica of himself looking directly at him. Moreover, this replica seems to mimick every action he does, but in the oppositie...

Hello Forum, I have a general interest in theoretical physics and my knowledge and understanding extends no further than what is presented in popular layman's texts. I have two questions which may be more philosophical - if this is the incorrect forum for these questions, please direct me...
