Creep Behavior of Passive Bovine Extraocular Muscle
This paper characterized bovine extraocular muscles (EOMs) using creep, which represents long-term stretching induced by a constant force. After preliminary optimization of testing conditions, 20 fresh EOM samples were subjected to four different loading rates of 1.67, 3.33, 8.33, and 16.67%/s, after which creep was observed for 1,500 s. A published quasilinear viscoelastic (QLV) relaxation fun...
متن کاملIndependent passive mechanical behavior of bovine extraocular muscle compartments.
PURPOSE Intramuscular innervation of horizontal rectus extraocular muscles (EOMs) is segregated into superior and inferior (transverse) compartments, while all EOMs are also divided into global (GL) and orbital (OL) layers with scleral and pulley insertions, respectively. We sought evidence of potential independent action by examining passive mechanical coupling between EOM compartments. METH...
متن کاملA Quasilinear Viscoelastic Model for Brain Tissue
The nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of brain tissue that was observed in oscillatory shear tests was modeled with a quasilinear viscoelastic constitutive relation. The dynamic viscoelastic behavior of brain tissue has been previously modeled with only linear models. The reader is referred to Darvish (2000) for a review of the previous models. Studies on live neural tissue (Thibault et al., 1990...
متن کاملFibrillin and elastin networks in extrafusal tissue and muscle spindles of bovine extraocular muscles.
PURPOSE Bovine extraocular rectus muscles were examined to map the distribution of elastin and fibrillin in extrafusal tissue and muscle spindles. METHODS Immunohistochemical techniques and immunolocalization were employed to pin-point the placement of molecules relative to muscle fibers. RESULTS Strands containing elastin and fibrillin surrounded all extrafusal fibers. They also covered th...
متن کاملLinear 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...
