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…
Pressure Ulcers and Dressings: A Strain Sensitivity Analysis of the Boundary Conditions of a Finite Element Model
Nolwenn Fougeron, Isabelle Rivals, Nathanaël Connesson +6
Recently, a new bi-layer dressing was proposed by Urgo RID to reduce the healing time of pressure ulcers (PU). This dressing was numerically evaluated in previously published work.…
