Effects of Tension-Compression Nonlinearity on Solute Transport in Charged Hydrated Fibrous Tissues Under Dynamic Unconfined Compression
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cartilage is a charged hydrated fibrous tissue exhibiting a high degree of tension-compression nonlinearity (i.e., tissue anisotropy). The effect of tension-compression nonlinearity on solute transport ...
The Role of Flow-Independent Viscoelasticity in the Biphasic Tensile and Compressive Responses of Articular Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A long-standing challenge in the biomechanics of connective tissues (e.g., articular cartilage, ligament, tendon) has been the reported disparities between their tensile and compressive properties. ...
Novel Technique for Online Characterization of Cartilaginous Tissue Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The goal of tissue engineering is to use substitutes to repair and restore organ function. Bioreactors are an indispensable tool for monitoring and controlling the unique environment for engineered ...
Experimental Verification of the Roles of Intrinsic Matrix Viscoelasticity and Tension-Compression Nonlinearity in the Biphasic Response of Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A biphasic-CLE-QLV model proposed in our recent study [2001, J. Biomech. Eng., 123 , pp. 410–417] extended the biphasic theory of Mow et al. [1980, J. Biomech. Eng., 102 , pp. 73–84] to ...
