Media Including Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell (SMC)
Contraction (Chen, Luo, et al., 2013)
The media segment is considered as a thin-walled elastic tube deformed in the
circumferential and axial directions (Chen, Slipchenko, et al., 2013). Green strains
are defined as E
circumferential stretch ratio (τ refers to the midwall circumference of the loaded
vessel and Γ refers to that at ZSS), and λ
L
being axial lengths in loaded and no-load states, respectively. A structural
o
constitutive model is used to describe the mechanical response of passive coronary
media (Hollander et al., 2011a, 2011b), which contains isotropic inter-lamellar
(IL) elastin networks and helically oriented collagen fibers:

and (4) There is a unique un-deformed reference configuration (i.e., zero-stress state,
ZSS). The vessel is assumed as a cylindrical tube using a cylindrical coordinate
system, of which three principal directions are circumferential direction θ

Microstructural Features of Active Coronary Arteries
Based on previous microstructural studies (Chap. 3, Fig. 3.29), the following axioms
have been integrated to synthesize a realistic microstructural constitutive model:
(1) A fluid-like matrix is employed and suggests the tissue undergoes affine deformations. Therefore, the SEF of the vessel wall can be represented by the volumeweighted summation of individual SEFs of every constituent. (2) All fibers are only
resistant to tensile load and have negligible compressive and bending rigidities.
Elastin fibers take up most of load at low pressures, while collagen fibers gradually
become straightened and are recruited with an increase of pressure. (3) In adventitia,
many collagen fibers oriented towards the axial direction and the others aligned
nearly in the circumferential direction following a mixture of two normal distributions. The orientation of elastin fibers also follows two normal distributions where
the minor orientation of elastin is approximately orthometric to the major orientation. (4) The straightening strain of adventitia coll agen is found to follow a beta
distribution with a mean and standard deviation of (0.35, 0.051). (5) In media, most
SMCs arrange in θ z (circumferential-axial) plane and slightly aligned off circumferential direction of blood vessels with symmetrical polar angles, and the axial
active response of blood vessels is associated with SMC biaxial contraction. (6) The
majority of media fiber bundles are also planar and their orientations are consistent
with but not exactly identical to that of SMCs (O’Connell et al., 2008). Finally, there
exist isotropic inter-lamellar (IL) elastin networks in media, which disperse over
orientation space including the radial direction (Hollander et al., 2011a;O’Connell
et al., 2008 ).
Based on the above axioms, the total SEF of vessel wall is a sum of volumeweighted SEFs of fibers and SMCs:

Passive SEF of Coronary Artery
Although the SMCs are the predominate contributors of active behavior, they
provide negligible contributions to the passive properties of blood vessels
(Matsumoto & Nagayama, 2012; Roach & Burton, 1957; Wolinsky & Glagov,
1964). The passive SEF is thus only determined by SEFs of elastin and collagen
fibers:

In media, elastin and collagen fibers are aligned off of circumferential direction of
blood vessels, following two symmetric normal distributions are analogous to
SMCs. It is assumed that both fibers have the same distributions

network, the overall SEF of the passive media can be thus written as (i ¼ E, C):
