Linear viscoelastic behavior of subcutaneous adipose tissue.
Subcutaneous adipose tissue contributes to the overall mechanical behavior of the skin. Until today, however, no thorough constitutive model is available for this layer of tissue. As a start to the development of such a model, the objective of this study was to measure and describe the linear viscoelastic behavior of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Although large strains occur in vivo, this work o...
متن کاملCharacterizing the compression-dependent viscoelastic properties of human hepatic pathologies using dynamic compression testing.
Recent advances in elastography have provided several imaging modalities capable of quantifying the elasticity of tissue, an intrinsic tissue property. This information is useful for determining tumour margins and may also be useful for diagnosing specific tumour types. In this study, we used dynamic compression testing to quantify the viscoelastic properties of 16 human hepatic primary and sec...
متن کاملViscoelastic parameter identification of human brain tissue.
Understanding the constitutive behavior of the human brain is critical to interpret the physical environment during neurodevelopment, neurosurgery, and neurodegeneration. A wide variety of constitutive models has been proposed to characterize the brain at different temporal and spatial scales. Yet, their model parameters are typically calibrated with a single loading mode and fail to predict th...
متن کاملCharacterization of viscoelastic behavior of rat cervix in the last trimester of pregnancy
Quantitative measurement of mechanical properties of cervix is an effective tool to diagnose cervical insufficiency, specifically in the last trimester of pregnancy when preterm birth is mostly probable to occur. The objective of this study was to characterize the viscoelastic behavior of rat cervix at different displacement levels and rates early in the last trimester of pregnancy. Distinct di...
متن کاملSpatial and depth dependent viscoelastic behavior of articular cartilage
The mechanical response of the soft tissues of the knee is nonlinear, anisotropic, and viscoelastic. Individual tissues may also express nontrivial gradients of material properties throughout their structure, adding to the modeling complexity of the anatomy. Computational models of whole knee biomechanics can be extremely useful in understanding the progression of degenerative diseases and trau...
