Numerical simulations have been extensively used in the past two decades for the study of intracranial aneurysms (IAs), a dangerous disease that occurs in the arteries that reach the brain and affect overall 3.2 % of a ...

The feasibility of extracting First Order Ogden constitutive parameters of gelatin gels from experimental flat punch indentation curves is analyzed. Eight gelatin gel samples of different formulations are evaluated. ...

A new generalized damage model for quasi-incompressible hyperelasticity in a total Lagrangian finite-strain framework is presented. A Kachanov-like reduction factor (1 - D) is applied on the deviatoric part of the hyperelastic ...

The concept behind a biodegradable ligament device is to temporarily replace the biomechanical functions of the ruptured ligament, while it progressively regenerates its capacities. However, there is a lack of methods to ...

This study investigates the effects of different solid models on predictions of brain shift for three craniotomies. We created a generic 3D brain model based on healthy human brain and modeled the brain parenchyma as single ...

Data-driven methods have changed the way we understand and model materials. However, while providing unmatched flexibility, these methods have limitations such as reduced capacity to extrapolate, overfitting, and violation ...

Se aplicó la mecánica de sólidos hiperelásticos al estudio del comportamiento del tubo arterial, ya que es un medio consolidado en la comprensión de fenómenos de interés para los profesionales de la medicina y de la ...
