The engineering S-S curves show that at the end of the test, a 15-N force causes a 45.7% strain to a highly calcified embolus (black solid line) and a 64.4% strain to a partially calcified embolus (black dashed line). The same compression force results in a higher strain (>80%) on the other emboli.
