Identification of a visco-hyperelastic model for mandibular periosteum.
J Mech Behav Biomed Mater
September 2022
Article Synopsis
- The paper presents a visco-hyperelastic model to understand the mechanical behavior of the human mandibular periosteum, treating it as an anisotropic and homogeneous material.
- Various models from existing literature are tested to differentiate between the elastic and visco-elastic properties of the cellular matrix and collagen fibers.
- The study uses tensile tests on human mandibular periosteum samples at different speeds to determine and validate a combined model that includes simplified Rivlin's law and Kulkarni's law for both the cellular matrix and collagen contributions.
