Current poisson's ratio values of finite element models are too low to consider soft tissues nearly-incompressible: illustration on the human heel region
Nolwenn Fougeron, Alessio Trebbi, Bethany Keenan +2
Finite element analysis of soft tissues is a well-developed method that allows estimation of mechanical quantities (e.g. stresses, strains). A constitutive law has to be used to ch…
Definition and evaluation of a finite element model of the human heel for diabetic foot ulcer prevention under shearing loads
Alessio Trebbi, Nolwenn Fougeron, Yohan Payan
Diabetic foot ulcers are triggered by mechanical loadings applied to the surface of the plantar skin. Strain is considered to play a crucial role in relation to ulcer etiology and…
In vivo quantification of 3D displacement in sacral soft tissues under compression: Relevance of 2D US-based measurements for pressure ulcer risk assessment
Ekaterina Mukhina, Alessio Trebbi, Pierre-Yves Rohan +2
OBJECTIVE: 2D Ultrasound (US) imaging has been recently investigated as a more accessible alternative to 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for the estimation of soft issue motion…
MR-based quantitative measurement of human soft tissue internal strains for pressure ulcer prevention
Alessio Trebbi, Ekaterina Mukhina, Pierre-Yves Rohan +4
Pressure ulcers are a severe disease affecting patients that are bedridden or in a wheelchair bound for long periods of time. These wounds can develop in the deep layers of the ski…
MR-compatible loading device for assessment of heel pad internal tissue displacements under shearing load
Alessio Trebbi, Antoine Perrier, Mathieu Bailet +1
In the last decade, the role of shearing loads has been increasingly suspected to play a determinant impact in the formation of deep pressure ulcers. In vivo observations of such d…
