From: Noninvasive measurement of cardiac stroke volume using pulse wave velocity and aortic dimensions: a simulation study

Figure 6

Estimated stroke volumes in model circulatory systems with nonlinear compliance, plotted as functions of the actual values used as model inputs over a range of peak left ventricular pressure values and consequent aortic pressures. (a) uncorrected data computed assuming constant aortic compliance (b) corrected data for nonlinear compliance in a classical Fungian biomaterial. Heart rate was 120/min. Dashed lines at 45 degrees are lines of identity.
