Anisotropic hyperelastic behavior of soft biological tissues

Résumé

Constitutive laws are fundamental to the studies of the mechanically dominated clinical interventions involving soft biological tissues which show a highly anisotropic hyperelastic mechanical properties. The purpose of this paper was to develop an improved constitutive law based on the Holzapfel–Gasser–Ogden's model: to replace the isotropic part with Gent constitutive law so as to model the noncollagenous matrix of the media due to its generality and capability to reproduce the Neo-Hookean model. This model is implemented into an in-house finite element program. A uniaxial tension test is considered to study the influence of material parameter (Formula presented.) in Gent model and (Formula presented.) which represents the angle between the collagen fibers and the circumferential direction. A simulation of an adventitial strip specimen under tension is performed to show the applicability of this constitutive law.
