To study the changes of the pressure waveform in a large artery, a fluid-wall interaction model was constructed and the finite element method was employed. The numerical results indicate that the pressure wave is reflected and the peak pressure gradually increases. The changes of the pressure waveform in a large artery were simulated successfully. The results are in agreement with physiological facts. The model can be used to investigate other mechanical properties of arteries in future.
