  • Abstract
    Protocols for analyzing the viscoelastic behavior of the porcine aortic valve were compared for accuracy in predicting the stress resulting from a sawtooth strain waveform. Protocols that account for material memory or allow complete material recovery between tests were found to be the most accurate
