Until the mid-1970s, compression testing of composite materials received relatively little attention. Up to that point it, had generally been assumed that the compressive stiffness was approximately ...
A total of 118 consecutive patients (85 men) between 18 and 88 years of age (mean age: 49±14 years) participated in the study. The effect of decreased arterial pressure induced by peripheral ...
Arterial stiffness due to is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease but is very difficult to measure. A new method for measuring arterial stiffness has been developed. This simple, non-invasive ...
