The artery is treated as a thick-walled cylindrical shell. Using the large deformation theory, an analytical expression for the pulse wave speed is obtained and the effect of twist on the wave speed is discussed. Numerical results indicate that although phase velocity increases with pressure, it decreases with increasing twist angle.
