Microstructural and physiological features of tissues elucidated by quantitative-diffusion-tensor MRI

TL;DR: Quantitative-diffusion-tensor MRI consists of deriving and displaying parameters that resemble histological or physiological stains, i.e., that characterize intrinsic features of tissue microstructure and microdynamics that are objective, and insensitive to the choice of laboratory coordinate system.

Elastically deformable models

TL;DR: The description of shape and the description of motion are unified and differential equations that model the behavior of non-rigid curves, surfaces, and solids as a function of time are constructed.

A continuum mechanics based four‐node shell element for general non‐linear analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a general quadrilateral shell element for geometric and material nonlinear analysis is presented, which is formulated using three-dimensional continuum mechanics theory and it is applicable to the analysis of thin and thick shells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elasticity of soft tissues in simple elongation

TL;DR: A theoretical framework is presented in which the elastic properties of soft tissues can be described and it is shown that the mathematical formulation works well also in reducing published data on the series element of the heart and striated muscles, and the skin.
