We have formulated the first constitutive model to describe the complete measured planar biaxial stress-strain relationship of the native and glutaraldehyde-treated aortic valve cusp using a structurally guided approach. When applied to native, zero-pressure fixed, and low-pressure fixed cusps, only three parameters were needed to simulate fully the highly anisotropic, and nonlinear in-plane biaxial mechanical behavior. Differences in the behavior of the native and zero- and low-pressure fixed cusps were found to be primarily due to changes in the effective fiber stress-strain behavior Further, the model was able to account for the effects of small (
