Simple Shear Testing of Parallel-Fibered Planar Soft Tissues
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The simple shear test may provide unique information regarding the material response of parallel-fibered soft tissues because it allows the elimination of the dominant fiber material response ...
Anisotropic Hydraulic Permeability Under Finite Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The structural organization of biological tissues and cells often produces anisotropic transport properties. These tissues may also undergo large deformations under normal function, potentially ...
Measurement of Strain in the Left Ventricle during Diastole with cine-MRI and Deformable Image Registration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The assessment of regional heart wall motion (local strain) can localize ischemic myocardial disease, evaluate myocardial viability, and identify impaired cardiac function due to hypertrophic or ...
Erratum: “Measurement of Strain in the Left Ventricle during Diastole with cine-MRI and Deformable Image Registration” [Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2005, 127(7), pp. 1195–1207]
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Table 1 of the original manuscript contained typographical errors, with the column labels for each data set being reversed. The labels should read as “Endo” and “Epi,” respectively, for each ...
Recruitment of Tendon Crimp With Applied Tensile Strain
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The tensile stress-strain behavior of ligaments and tendons begins with a toe region that is believed to result from the straightening of crimped collagen fibrils. The in situ mechanical function ...
Finite Element Algorithm for Frictionless Contact of Porous Permeable Media Under Finite Deformation and Sliding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study formulates and implements a finite element contact algorithm for solid-fluid (biphasic) mixtures, accommodating both finite deformation and sliding. The finite element source code is ...
Equivalence Between Short-Time Biphasic and Incompressible Elastic Material Responses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Porous-permeable tissues have often been modeled using porous media theories such as the biphasic theory. This study examines the equivalence of the short-time biphasic and incompressible elastic ...
FEBio: Finite Elements for Biomechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the field of computational biomechanics, investigators have primarily used commercial software that is neither geared toward biological applications nor sufficiently flexible to follow the latest ...
Subject-Specific Finite Element Model of the Pelvis: Development, Validation and Sensitivity Studies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A better understanding of the three-dimensional mechanics of the pelvis, at the patient-specific level, may lead to improved treatment modalities. Although finite element (FE) models of the pelvis ...
Simultaneous Measurement of Three-Dimensional Joint Kinematics and Ligament Strains With Optical Methods
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this study was to assess the precision and accuracy of a nonproprietary, optical three-dimensional (3D) motion analysis system for the simultaneous measurement of soft tissue ...
