• Impedance matching– Minimise cardiac work– Minimise pulse pressure– Control flow according to demand
What are arteries for?

• What are arteries made of?
• Why do large arteries become stiffer with age (and disease)?
• Why are some people affected more than others?
QuestionsConduit arteries: large arteries near the heart and their main branches
• Why are conduit arteries distensible?

Arteries are distensible because:

• The wheel has yet to evolve in the animal kingdom (bacteria have propellers)
• Therefore(?) the heart is a pulsatile pump.
• Its output consists of a pulse wave superimposed on a steady component.

Speed of the wave is related to the stiffness of the artery it is
traveling in
The stiffer the artery;
the higher the wave speed
Wave speed is proportional to the square root of arterial stiffness

Stress, strain and elastic modulus
A reminder.
![Page 13: Conduits –To conduct blood to the organs and periphery Impedance matching –Minimise cardiac work –Minimise pulse pressure –Control flow according to demand](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dc55503460f94ab7eb8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Stress (, sigma)– Force per unit area = (F/A)
• Strain (, epsilon)– Change in length per unit length = (L/L0)
• Elastic (Young’s) modulus (E)– stress/strain =
F L0
A L=
• Poisson’s ratio (, nu)– transverse strain /longitudinal strain = -x/y – for incompressible materials

ReflectionsIn the arterial system reflections of pressure and flow waves occur wherever there is a change in the local fluid impedance
• Decrease in diameter or increase in stiffness ->positive reflection of pressurenegative reflection of flow
• If no reflections: pressure and flow waves are the same shape
• Arterial disease usually associated with increased reflections (except aneurysms)
• Energy is lost so cardiac output must increase to maintain a given flow
