Abstract
We realized in recent past publications a flaw in the experimental protocol that results in an overestimation of the relative volume change (thus underestimating the bulk modulus). It is due to the consideration of experimental observations close to the zero pressure. Nontheless, in view of the experimental evidence, the pre-assumption of incompressibility in many phenomenological constitutive models of artery walls should be re-evaluated.
