The objectives are to design and fabricate rigid test models of varying anastomotic angles, to mimic the proximal anastomosis of the bypass at the aorta-coronary section. Design and fabricate an experimental rig for conducting investigating on anastomotic proximal models, for both steady and pulsati...
