Influence of Preservation Temperature on the Measured Mechanical Properties of Brain Tissue
Badar Rashid, Michel Destrade, Michael Gilchrist
The large variability in experimentally measured mechanical properties of brain tissue is due to many factors including heterogeneity, anisotropy, age dependence and post-mortem ti…
Shear instability in skin tissue
Pasquale Ciarletta, Michel Destrade, Artur L. Gower
We propose two toy-models to describe, predict, and interpret the wrinkles appearing on the surface of skin when it is sheared. With the first model, we account for the lines of gr…
Some results on finite amplitude elastic waves propagating in rotating media
Michel Destrade, Giuseppe Saccomandi
Two questions related to elastic motions are raised and addressed. First: in which theoretical framework can the equations of motion be written for an elastic half-space put into u…
Finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves of exponential type in incompressible elastic materials
Michel Destrade
It is proved that elliptically-polarized finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves may not propagate in an isotropic elastic material subject to the constraint of incompressibilit…
Finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves in a deformed Mooney-Rivlin material
Michel Destrade
The propagation of finite-amplitude linearly-polarized inhomogeneous transverse plane waves is considered for a Mooney-Rivlin material maintained in a state of finite static homoge…
Surface waves in orthotropic incompressible materials
Michel Destrade
The secular equation for surface acoustic waves propagating on an orthotropic incompressible half-space is derived in a direct manner, using the method of first integrals.
