    Abstract
    This project addresses characterization of the material properties of aortic tissue. Understanding of these properties is important for a variety of studies including tissue engineering, effects of aging and diseases, stents engineering, and traumatic aorta rupture. The goal of the presented research was to characterize the stress-strain relationship of aorta in dynamic oscillatory biaxial loading. A setup was developed that supplied pressure loading from the physiological to sub-failure levels (between 7 and 76 kPa) to porcine aorta at frequencies ranging from 0.50Hz to 5.00Hz. Samples tested were constrained at both ends while the deformation and the pressure were recorded. Volumetric strain versus pressure was used to characterize the structural behavior of the material which showed frequency dependency and hysteresis indicating viscoelastic response. An offset method was developed to account for drifting behavior exhibited by some of the samples. The structural behavior of aorta was modeled using a quasi-linear viscoelastic (QLV) creep theory. The QLV model included a logarithmic steady state elastic function v = 0.663 +/- 0.040 + 0.241 +/- 0.011 ln(P) for pressure in kPa, and a Prony series creep function ( J0 = 0.472 +/- 0.021, J2 = 0.109 +/- 0.060, J3 = 0.419 +/- 0.056). Modeling results were then used to determine the relationships between the circumferential and longitudinal stresses and strains of the material. The results exhibited that the stress in the transverse direction was about 1.5 times larger than in the axial direction. However, in the axial direction material was stiffer and the deformation was 30% less. The relaxation function of the material was determined by linearizing the non-linear component of the QLV model and applying to it the linear viscoelastic theory. Furthermore, literature comparison revealed that aorta's creep function, as well as its elastic modulus, is within the range of what has been reported in the literature. In conclusion, an experimental model was developed that can be used to predict the behavior of porcine aorta under physiological and sub-failure conditions at quasi-static and dynamic loading.
