Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As a means to highlight important advancements in Biomechanical Engineering, the annual Summer Bioengineering Conference (SBC), JBME has initiated a new annual special issue. The first part of ...
Journal of Biomechanical Engineering Update
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is my pleasure to inform the readership that the impact factor of JBME went up from 1.6 in 2010 to 1.9 in 2011. Submissions continue to substantially increase, with the 2011 total ...
Incorporation of Experimentally-Derived Fiber Orientation into a Structural Constitutive Model for Planar Collagenous Tissues
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Structural constitutive models integrate information on tissue composition and structure, avoiding ambiguities in material characterization. However, critical structural information (such as fiber ...
The Journal of Biomechanical Engineering—The Next Step
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is indeed an honor to be the Editor of the Journal of Biomechanical Engineering (JBME). In looking through the list of previous Editors (e.g. Yin, Diller, Nerem, Fung), one feels the ...

Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Journal of Biomechanical Engineering reports the results of original research involving the application of mechanical engineering knowledge, skills, and principles to the analysis, design, ...
Special Issue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We are pleased to publish the second in a series of special issues published in the Journal of Biomechanical Engineering that focus in high-impact areas. The current issue grew out of a ...
Simulated Bioprosthetic Heart Valve Deformation under Quasi-Static Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For more than 40years, the replacement of diseased natural heart valves with prosthetic devices has dramatically extended the quality and length of the lives of millions of patients worldwide. ...
Biaxial Mechanical Properties of the Native and Glutaraldehyde-Treated Aortic Valve Cusp: Part II—A Structural Constitutive Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We have formulated the first constitutive model to describe the complete measured planar biaxial stress–strain relationship of the native and glutaraldehyde-treated aortic valve cusp using a ...
A Structural Model for the Flexural Mechanics of Nonwoven Tissue Engineering Scaffolds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The development of methods to predict the strength and stiffness of biomaterials used in tissue engineering is critical for load-bearing applications in which the essential functional requirements ...
On the Biaxial Mechanical Properties of the Layers of the Aortic Valve Leaflet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: All existing constitutive models for heart valve leaflet tissues either assume a uniform transmural stress distribution or utilize a membrane tension formulation. Both approaches ignore layer ...
