Illustration of the influence of the opening angle α(I) expressed through the parameter k(I) = π/(π − α(I)) on the residual circumferential stress σθθ (kPa) at the inner and outer boundaries of the intima and media. The value k(I) = 1.191 is the mean value identified in table 1, which was used in the plots shown in figures 5 and 7. Mi, inner boundary of media; Mo, outer boundary of media; Ii, inner boundary of intima; Io, outer boundary of intima.
