Nonlinear viscoelastic biomaterials: meaningful characterization and engineering inspiration.
Nonlinear mechanical properties play an important role in numerous biological functions, for instance the locomotion strategy used by terrestrial gastropods. We discuss the progress made toward bioinspired snail-like locomotion and the pursuit of an engineered fluid that imitates the nonlinear viscoelastic properties of native gastropod pedal mucus. The rheological behavior of native pedal mucu...
متن کاملTheoretical Considerations for Viscoelastic Characterization of Biomaterials
Untuk sesuatu rekaan, pembinaan serta ujian jentera-jmtera memproses dan mesin-mesin pengangkutan bahan-bahan biological, sifat-sifat mekanikal bahan-bahan tersebut perlu diketahui terlebeh dahulu. Oleh kerana percubaan-percubaan yang lampau dapat mempastikan bahawa bahan-bahan biological bersifat viscoelastic, perlulah ianya dinyatakan supaya dapat dipastikan tindak balas sifat-sifat tersebut ...
متن کاملNonlinear viscoelastic characterization of bovine trabecular bone
The time-independent elastic properties of trabecular bone have been extensively investigated, and several stiffness-density relations have been proposed. Although it is recognized that trabecular bone exhibits time-dependent mechanical behaviour, a property of viscoelastic materials, the characterization of this behaviour has received limited attention. The objective of the present study was t...
متن کاملEngineering the Performance of Biomaterials through Understanding and Optimisation of Their Viscoelastic Properties
Biomaterials are materials that are employed to replace or enhance a bodily function and, as such, are commonly used in modern medicine. The performance of these systems is directly related to their viscoelastic properties. This paper provides an overview of the importance of such properties and how they may be manipulated to achieve optimal performance. INTRODUCTION In recent years medicine ha...
متن کاملHyper-frequency viscoelastic spectroscopy of biomaterials.
With the emergence of new biomaterials and elastography imaging techniques, there is a need for innovative instruments dedicated to viscoelasticity measurements. In this work, we introduce a novel hyper-frequency viscoelastic spectroscopy (HFVS) technique dedicated to characterize soft media subjected to mid-to-very-high frequency stress ranges (or, equivalently, to probe short-to-very-short re...
