An Anisotropic Visco-hyperelastic Model Predicting Short-term Strain-rate Dependent Response of Soft Tissues
INTRODUCTION Hyperelastic models for articular cartilage have been developed for decades [1, 2]. These models have some capacity in predicting the cartilage load response in compression, but can unlikely account for time dependent behavior of soft tissues in tension as the inherent viscoelasticity of the tissue has not been taken into account. This study aims at developing an anisotropic viscoh...
متن کاملVisco-hyperelastic constitutive modeling of soft tissues based on short and long-term internal variables
BACKGROUND Differential-type and integral-type formulations are two common approaches in modeling viscoelastic materials. A differential-type theory is often derived from a Helmholtz free energy function and is usually more suitable for the prediction of strain-rate dependent mechanical behavior during rapid loading, while an integral-type theory usually captures stress relaxation more efficien...
متن کاملAdaptive Control Strategy for a Bilateral Tele- Surgery System Interacting with Active Soft Tissues
In this paper, the problem of control and stabilization of a bilateral tele-surgery roboticsystem in interaction with an active soft tissue is considered. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, theprevious works did not consider a realistic model for a moving soft tissue like heart tissue in beating heartsurgery. Here, a new model is proposed to indicate significant characteristics of a moving ...
متن کاملOn the Active Response of Soft Living Tissues
Soft tissues exhibit a nonlinear, essentially incompressible (visco-) elastic response; a key issue is the active nature of muscle fibres, in other words their ability to contract and relax in response to biochemical signals. Here we present a continuum model able to describe an active elastic medium.
متن کاملSoft tissues
The deposition of amorphous calcium salts within the soft tissues is variously called mineralization or calcification. Two forms of calcium salts may be found in the soft tissues: calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate and calcium hydroxyapatite. If bony trabeculae are discernible within the mineralized focus the term ossification is used, sometimes prefixed with the terms ectopic or heterotopic. Ther...
