A nonlinear finite element model of cartilage growth.
The long range objective of this work is to develop a cartilage growth finite element model (CGFEM), based on the theories of growing mixtures that has the capability to depict the evolution of the anisotropic and inhomogeneous mechanical properties, residual stresses, and nonhomogeneities that are attained by native adult cartilage. The CGFEM developed here simulates isotropic in vitro growth ...
متن کاملA New Stress Based Approach for Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis
This article demonstrates a new approach for nonlinear finite element analysis. The methodology is very suitable and gives very accurate results in linear as well as in nonlinear range of the material behavior. Proposed methodology can be regarded as stress based finite element analysis as it is required to define the stress distribution within the structural body with structural idealization a...
متن کاملA nonlinear finite-element model of the newborn ear canal.
A three-dimensional nonlinear finite-element model of a 22-day-old newborn ear canal is presented. The geometry is based on a clinical x-ray CT scan. A nonlinear hyperelastic constitutive law is applied to model large deformations. The Young's modulus of the soft tissue is found to have a significant effect on the ear-canal volume change, which ranges from approximately 27% to 75% over the stat...
متن کاملFinite element approximation of a nonlinear cross-diffusion population model
where j = i and gi(u1, u2) := (μi − γii ui − γij uj) ui. In the above, the given data is as follows: v is an environmental potential, c i ∈ R≥0, ai ∈ R>0 are diffusion coefficients, bi ∈ R are transport coefficients, μi ∈ R≥0 are the intrinsic growth rates, and γii ∈ R≥0 are intra-specific, whereas γij , i = j, ∈ R≥0 are interspecific competition coefficients. In addition to showing well-posedn...
متن کاملA Nonlinear Finite Element Model of Soft Tissue Indentation
Mathematically describing the mechanical behavior of soft tissues under large deformations is of paramount interest to the medical simulation community. Most of the data available in the literature apply small strains (<10%) to the tissue of interest to assume a linearly elastic behavior. This paper applies a nonlinear hyperelastic 8-chain network constitutive law to model soft tissues undergoi...
