...Elisabete Silva; Marco Parente; Sofia Brandão; Teresa Mascarenhas; Renato Natal Jorge To better understand the disorders in the pelvic cavity associated with the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) using computational models, it is fundamental to identify the biomechanical properties of these muscles...

...Clare Y. L. Chao; Gabriel Y. F. Ng; Kwok-Kuen Cheung; Yong-Ping Zheng; Li-Ke Wang; Gladys L. Y. Cheing The present study presented both in vivo and ex vivo approaches to evaluate the biomechanical properties of healing skin wounds in rats. The two approaches are based on different principles...

...Oluseeni A. Komolafe; Todd C. Doehring Although the overall bulk properties of the Achilles tendon have been measured, there is little information detailing the properties of individual fascicles or their interactions. The knowledge of biomechanical properties at the fascicle-scale is critical...

... the previous models was quantified and judged essential. Thus, we conclude that a model with anisotropic elastin may offer a better description of the biomechanical properties of the vascular wall. Our model and testing methods are subject to a number of limitations. First of all, the results are vessel...
