Instabilities in Elastomers and in Soft Tissues
Biological soft tissues exhibit elastic properties which can be dramatically different from rubber-type materials (elastomers). To gain a better understanding of the role of constitutive relationships in determining material responses under loads we compare three different types of instabilities (two in compression, one in extension) in hyperelasticity for various forms of strain energy functio...
متن کاملReal-time simulation of biological soft tissues: a PGD approach.
We introduce here a novel approach for the numerical simulation of nonlinear, hyperelastic soft tissues at kilohertz feedback rates necessary for haptic rendering. This approach is based upon the use of proper generalized decomposition techniques, a generalization of PODs. Proper generalized decomposition techniques can be considered as a means of a priori model order reduction and provides a p...
متن کاملExperimental Observation and Modelling of Preconditioning in Soft Biological Tissues
Constitutive models for soft biological tissues and in particular for human organs are required for medical applications such as surgery simulation, surgery planning, diagnosis. In the literature the mechanical properties of biosolids are generally presented in ”preconditioned” state, i.e. the stabilized conditions reached after several loading-unloading cycles. We hereby present experiments on...
متن کاملThird- and fourth-order elasticities of biological soft tissues.
In the theory of weakly nonlinear elasticity, Hamilton et al. [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 116, 41-44 (2004)] identified W=muI(2)+(A/3)I(3)+DI(2) (2) as the fourth-order expansion of the strain-energy density for incompressible isotropic solids. Subsequently, much effort focused on theoretical and experimental developments linked to this expression in order to inform the modeling of gels and soft biolo...
متن کاملMethod of testing very soft biological tissues in compression.
Mechanical properties of very soft tissues, such as brain, liver, kidney and prostate have recently joined the mainstream research topics in biomechanics. This has happened in spite of the fact that these tissues do not bear mechanical loads. The interest in the biomechanics of very soft tissues has been motivated by the developments in computer-integrated and robot-aided surgery--in particular...
