Viscoelasticity and its alteration in time and space has turned out to act as a key element in
fundamental biological processes in living systems, such as morphogenesis and motility …

Elastography has become widely used clinically for characterising changes in soft tissue
mechanics that are associated with altered tissue structure and composition. However, some …

Background Biomechanical tissue properties of glioblastoma tumors are heterogeneous, but
the molecular mechanisms involved and the biological implications are poorly understood …

Soft tissue mechanical characterisation is important in many areas of medical research.
Examples span from surgery training, device design and testing, sudden injury and disease …

The solid and fluid pressures of tumours are often elevated relative to surrounding tissue.
This increased pressure is known to correlate with decreased treatment efficacy and …

We propose and analyse the properties of a new class of models for the electromechanics of
cardiac tissue. The set of governing equations consists of nonlinear elasticity using a …

Simple Summary Tumor biomechanical properties, including high viscoelasticity and tumor
pressure (solid stress and interstitial fluid pressure), are linked to tumor severity. While tumor …

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) evolved as a tool for storing and transmitting genetic
information within cells, but outside the cell, DNA can also serve as “construction material” …

Comparison of ultrasound elastography, magnetic resonance elastography and finite element
model to quantify nonlinear shear modulus - IOPscience Skip to content IOP Science home …

This paper describes the propagation of shear waves in a Holzapfel–Gasser–Ogden (HGO)
material and investigates the potential of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) for …
