Viscous flows in hyperelastic chambers are relevant to many biological phenomena such as inhalation into the lung's acinar region, and medical applications inflation of a small chamber minimally invasive procedures. In this work, we analytically study viscous flow elastic deformation created due spherical from one or two inlets. Our investigation considers shell's constitutive law coupled with ...

In this paper we present hyperelastic models for swelling elastic shells, due to pressurization of the internal cavity. These shells serve as model systems for cells having cell walls, as can be found in bacteria, plants and fungi. The pressurized internal cavity represents the cell vacuole with intact membrane at a certain turgor pressure, and the elastic shell represents the hydrated cell wal...

The applications of membranes are increasing rapidly in various fields of engineering and science. The geometric, material, force and contact non-linearities complicate their analysis, which increases the demand for computationally efficient methods and interpretation of counter-intuitive behaviours. To understand the complex behaviour of membrane structures, it is necessary to perform parametr...

We present a new method for real-time physics-based simulation supporting many different types of hyperelastic materials. Previous methods such as Position Based or Projective Dynamics are fast, but support only limited selection of materials; even classical materials such as the Neo-Hookean elasticity are not supported. Recently, Xu et al. [2015] introduced new “spline-based materials” which c...
