\subsubsection{The Reservoir Pressure is a Wave and Equals Twice
the Backward Wave}
The RWC assumes that Pm=P +P or P =Pm-P and

experimental data show P =Z Qm ,32,36 thus P =Pm-Z Qm, and

WSA (Equation 1) gives Pb=(Pm-ZcQm)/2 thus reservoir pressure
is P =2Pb .

Also in diastole Pb=Pf and P =2Pb=Pb+Pf and

tole is zero, as discussed above. Indeed, P res is a wave equal
to 2Pb and in diastole the sum of P =Pf+Pb. Hametner et al40

have shown in patients that indeed P res=2.01Pb , r2=0.94.
When the reservoir pressure is derived at different locations,
it is found that it arrives later in the distal aorta,22 as
also explained by P =2Pb. The wave property of P was also
