- Abstract
Focuses on a study that was designed to explore the changes of mechanical properties in the rat's arterial system at different ages. Usage of the exponentially tapered T-tube model and Long-Evans male rats in the study; How the pulsatile pressure and flow signals in the ascending aorta were measured; What was done to describe the pulsatile nature of blood flows in the vasculature; What a decline in aortic characteristic impedance suggests.
