Despite the high prevalence of tendon pathology in athletes, the underlying pathogenesis is
still poorly understood. Various aetiological theories have been presented and rejected in …

Overuse injuries to dense collagenous tissues are common, but their etiology is poorly
understood. The predominant hypothesis that micro-damage accumulation exceeds the rate …

Precise control of tissue water content is essential for ensuring accurate, repeatable, and
physiologically relevant measurements of tissue mechanics and biochemical composition …

Optic nerve head (ONH) biomechanics is centrally involved in the pathogenesis of
glaucoma, a blinding ocular condition often characterized by elevation and fluctuation of the …

Musculoskeletal soft connective tissues are commonly injured due to repetitive use, but the
evolution of mechanical damage to the tissue structure during repeated loading is poorly …

The present work aims to investigate whether it is possible to identify and quantify the
contributions of the interstitial fluid and the solid skeleton to the overall time-dependent …

We introduce a second-order computational homogenization procedure designed to
address heterogeneous poromechanical media. Our approach relies on the method of …

Application of biomechanical models relies on model parameters estimated from
experimental data. Parameter non-identifiability, when the same model output can be …

Introduction The relationship between the twisting of the three subtendons of the Achilles
tendon (AT) and local strain has received attention in recent years. The present study aimed …

Determining tissue biomechanical material properties from mechanical test data is
frequently required in a variety of applications. However, the validity of the resulting …
