Effects of nerve bundle geometry on neurotrauma evaluation
Ilaria Cinelli, Michel Destrade, Peter McHugh +1
Objective: We confirm that alteration of a neuron structure can induce abnormalities in signal propagation for nervous systems, as observed in brain damage. Here, we investigate th…
A High Rate Tension Device for Characterizing Brain Tissue
Badar Rashid, Michel Destrade, Michael Gilchrist
The mechanical characterization of brain tissue at high loading velocities is vital for understanding and modeling Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The most severe form of TBI is diff…
Automated Estimation of Collagen Fibre Dispersion in the Dermis and its Contribution to the Anisotropic Behaviour of Skin
Aisling Ní Annaidh, Karine Bruyère, Michel Destrade +4
Collagen fibres play an important role in the mechanical behaviour of many soft tissues. Modelling of such tissues now often incorporates a collagen fibre distribution. However, th…
Small amplitude waves and stability for a pre-stressed viscoelastic solid
Michel Destrade, Ray W. Ogden, Giuseppe Saccomandi
We study the propagation of small amplitude waves superimposed on a large static deformation in a nonlinear viscoelastic material of differential type. We use bulk waves and surfac…
