Residual stresses are considered as a significant factor influencing the stress-states in arteries. These stresses are typically observed through opening angle of a radially cut artery segment, often regarded as a primary descriptor of their stress-free state. However, the experimental evidence regarding the stress-free states of different artery layers is scarce. In this study, two experimental protocols, each employing different layer-separating sequences, were performed on 17 human common carotid arteries; the differences between both protocols were found statistically insignificant. While the media exhibited opening behaviour (reduced curvature), a contrasting trend was observed for the adventitia curvature, indicating its closing behaviour. In addition to the different bending effect, length changes of both layers after separation were observed, namely shortening of the adventitia and elongation of the media. The results point out that not all the residual stresses are released after a radial cut but a significant portion of them is released only after the layer separation. Considering the different mechanical properties of layers, this may significantly change the stress distribution in arterial wall and should be considered in its biomechanical models.
