Numerous parameters are used to describe arterial stiffness, including pulse wave velocity (PWV), the augmentation index (AIx), distensibility coefficient (DC), and compliance coefficient (CC) [ 14– 16].
Carotid stiffness indices: pulse wave velocity (PWV, m/s), distensibility coefficient (DC, 1/KPa), compliance coefficient (CC, mm/kPa), α, β and augmentation index (AIx, %) were obtained.
QAS data analysis software also calculated the pulse wave velocity (PWV), compliance coefficient (CC), and stiffness index (αand β; Figure 2B).

The capillary compliance satisfies the empirical equation of Netti et al. [ 21]: (10) R = R 0 P v − P i + P c E b, immature vessel, R 0, mature vessel, where R0 is the origin radius of the capillary; b is the compliance exponent; E is the compliance coefficient.
A further comparison of coupling compliance coefficients in compliance matrix was made in order to generalize the influence of off-axis angle on the compliance coefficients.
The creep compliance coefficients for F82H and JLF-1 are consistent with the values obtained for other steels.
The project's compliance coefficients are 1.27 and 0.31 under GBL and GM respectively indicating its higher degree of compliance with the GM framework.
It is shown that non-monotonic and symmetry phenomena can be observed in the curves of the coupling and compliance coefficients.
The effect of location of crack along the thickness of the plate on natural frequencies is analyzed using appropriate crack compliance coefficients in the Line Spring Model.
