Idealized full aorta geometry and vessel wall material properties. (a): coronal (left) and sagittal (right) views with lengths and diameters. (b): close-up view of the arch and branches with lengths and diameters and the primary radius of curvature. (c): close-up view of the arch showing the degree of curvature in the ascending arch (left) and transverse view of the arch (right), showing the degree of transverse curvature and the degree of angulation from the sagittal plane. (d): the spatial distributions of wall thickness (h) and elastic modulus (E).
