Similar to Figs. 3 and 4 except for different sheath opening angles (i)–(iv) for a fixed core shear modulus. Each subpanel again varies core thickness (represented by progressively darker shading on the curves and local arrows) and sheath thickness (abscissa) and shows (a) average core stress , (b) radial compliance , and (c) diastolic radius . Note the absences of swelling of the core.
