Abstract
This work investigates the effects of a pressure increase in deformable fluid-filled biochannels, such as arteries and veins. Simple qualitative expressions are developed relating pressure-induced changes to the biochannel expansion, volumetric flow rate, and biochannel wall stress. Such relations are necessary for a rapid analysis in potential applications such as post-traumatic stress, hemorrhagic strokes, atherosclerotic plaque buildup, etc. The relations are based on the development of functions that correct classical pressurized thin-tube expressions for hoop stress for finite deformations.
