An Extended Eddy-Preserving Scheme for Strong Vortical Flows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The eddy-preserving limiter has been demonstrated to outperform the conventional van Albada limiter for monotone upstream-centered schemes for conservation laws (MUSCL) for vortical flows. It reduces the dissipation by ...
Stresses and Strains in the Medial Meniscus of an ACL Deficient Knee under Anterior Loading: A Finite Element Analysis with Image-Based Experimental Validation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The menisci are believed to play a stabilizing role in the ACL-deficient knee, and are known to be at risk for degradation in the chronically unstable knee. Much of our understanding of this ...
Viscoelastic Material Properties of the Myocardium and Cardiac Jelly in the Looping Chick Heart
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate material properties of developing embryonic tissues are a crucial factor in studies of the mechanics of morphogenesis. In the present work, we characterize the viscoelastic material ...
Sensitivities of Medial Meniscal Motion and Deformation to Material Properties of Articular Cartilage, Meniscus and Meniscal Attachments Using Design of Experiments Methods
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study investigated the role of the material properties assumed for articular cartilage, meniscus and meniscal attachments on the fit of a finite element model (FEM) to experimental data ...
Automatic Generation of User Material Subroutines for Biomechanical Growth Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The analysis of the biomechanics of growth and remodeling in soft tissues requires the formulation of specialized pseudoelastic constitutive relations. The nonlinear finite element analysis package ...
The Use of Sequential MR Image Sets for Determining Tibiofemoral Motion: Reliability of Coordinate Systems and Accuracy of Motion Tracking Algorithm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of magnetic resonance imaging has been proposed by many investigators for establishment of joint reference systems and kinematic tracking of musculoskeletal joints. In this study, the ...
