Schematics of (a) human trachea (composed of cartilaginous rings, which are completed by smooth muscle and connected to each other by narrow connective tissue layers) and the test samples along with the uniaxial tension direction, and (b) the strain applied on each sample, consisting of a preconditioning phase (six cycles of loading/unloading) and the stress relaxation phase (with application of a constant strain amplitude for relaxation over a period of 300 s)
