In the last two decades, there has been significant growth of interest in the mechanical behavior of biological soft tissues approached from the continuum mechanical perspective. A plenty of constitutive models have been proposed that represent the anisotropic hyperelastic behavior of biological soft tissues. Generally, invariant and fiber dispersion-based models are two main categories considered during the modeling steps. Among the anisotropic models, fiber dispersion-based constitutive models are known to have high performance for capturing the anisotropic behavior of tissues over invariant-based models. The type of the biological soft tissues and the number of available experimental data set under different loading cases play an important role in choosing the appropriate model. With the increasing number of hyperelastic models, a comparison among the models and choosing a proper one becomes a crucial factor for researchers in the field. In this study, the fitting performance of 9 anisotropic hyperelastic models has been investigated for three different tissues, abdominal aortic aneurysm tissue, linea alba, and rectus sheath. In order to obtain the parameters of each constitutive model, a genetic algorithm has been utilized. Further improvement of the results is achieved through the fmincon utility of MATLAB. Equibiaxial dataset for abdominal aortic aneurysm tissue, uniaxial dataset for linea alba, and uniaxial tension dataset for rectus sheath have been considered during parameter optimization.

Indentation and Observation of Anisotropic Soft Tissues Using an Indenter Device
Ashrafi, Parinaz; Tönük, Ergin (2014-10-31)
Soft tissues of human body have complex structures and different mechanical behaviors than those of traditional engineering materials. There is a great urge to understand tissue behavior of human body. Experimental data is needed for improvement of soft tissue modeling and advancement in implants and prosthesis, as well as diagnosis of diseases. Mechanical behavior and responses change when tissue loses its liveliness and viability. One of the techniques for soft tissue testing is indentation, which is appl...
A biomimetic growth factor delivery strategy for enhanced regeneration of iliac crest defects
Huri, Pinar Yilgor; Huri, Gazi; Yasar, Umit; UÇAR , YURDANUR; DİKMEN, NURTEN; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2013-06-01)
The importance of provision of growth factors in the engineering of tissues has long been shown to control the behavior of the cells within the construct and several approaches were applied toward this end. In nature, more than one type of growth factor is known to be effective during the healing of tissue defects and their peak concentrations are not always simultaneous. One of the most recent strategies includes the delivery of a combination of growth factors with the dose and timing to mimic the natural ...
On the quasi-incompressible finite element analysis of anisotropic hyperelastic materials
Gueltekin, Osman; Dal, Hüsnü; Holzapfel, Gerhard A. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-03-01)
Quasi-incompressible behavior is a desired feature in several constitutive models within the finite elasticity of solids, such as rubber-like materials and some fiber-reinforced soft biological tissues. The Q1P0 finite element formulation, derived from the three-field Hu-Washizu variational principle, has hitherto been exploited along with the augmented Lagrangian method to enforce incompressibility. This formulation typically uses the unimodular deformation gradient. However, contributions by Sansour (Eur ...
Investigation of bismuth doped bioglass/graphene oxide nanocomposites for bone tissue engineering
Pazarçeviren, Ahmet Engin; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Keskin, Dilek; Evis, Zafer (2018-03-01)
In this study, bismuth doped 45S5 nanobioactive bioglass (nBG) and graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites were developed and characterized in terms of microstructural, mechanical, bioactivity and biological properties. Bismuth (Bi) - doped nBG was synthesized by sol-gel method and sintered at 600 degrees C for 2 h. Nanosized GO was homogeneously mixed with Bi doped bioglass at various ratios to prepare nanocomposites. Addition of Bi increased the density of nBG samples while a considerable decrease in density w...
A comparison of orthogonal cutting data from experiments with three different finite element models
Bil, H; Kilic, SE; Tekkaya, AE (Elsevier BV, 2004-07-01)
The aim of this study is to compare various simulation models of orthogonal cutting process with each other as well as with the results of various experiments. Commercial implicit finite element codes MSC.Marc, Deform2D and the explicit code Thirdwave AdvantEdge have been used. In simulations, a rigid tool is advanced incrementally into the deformable workpiece which is remeshed whenever needed. In simulations with MSC.Marc and Thirdwave AdvantEdge, there is no separation criterion defined since chip format...
