Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparative Study of Several Material Models for Prediction of Hyperelastic Properties: Application to Silicone-Rubber and Soft Tissues
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a computational/experimental scheme, for the study of the nonlinear mechanical behaviour of biological soft tissues under uniaxial tension, and obtained the material constants for seven different hyperelastic material models via inverse methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Static analysis of functionally graded plates using third-order shear deformation theory and a meshless method
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the aspect ratio of the plate and the volume fractions of the constituents on the centroidal deflection were scrutinized and the computed results were found to agree well with the solution of the problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of composite plates using higher-order shear deformation theory and a finite point formulation based on the multiquadric radial basis function method
TL;DR: In this article, the third-order theory of Reddy for composite laminated plates is discretized using a new type of meshless method, a finite point based on the multiquadric radial basis function method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radial basis functions and higher-order shear deformation theories in the analysis of laminated composite beams and plates
TL;DR: In this article, the third-order theory of Reddy for composite laminated beams and plates is discretized using a meshless method based on the multiquadric radial basis function method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical properties of breast tissue, a state-of-the-art review
Nilza Ramião,Pedro Martins,Pedro Martins,Rita Rynkevic,Rita Rynkevic,António A. Fernandes,Maria da Luz Barroso,Diana Santos +7 more
TL;DR: The Young’s modulus of breast tissues is highly dependent on the tissue preload compression level and the results of these studies clearly indicate a wide variation in moduli not only among different types of tissue but also within each type of tissue.
