Mechanical stresses in soft materials across different length scales play a fundamental role in understanding the function of biological systems and in the use of artificial materials for engineering soft machines and biomedical devices.…
Pressure ulcers are a severe disease affecting patients that are bedridden or in a wheelchair bound for long periods of time. These wounds can develop in the deep layers of the skin of specific parts of the body, mostly on heels or sacrum,…
Knowing the stress within a soft material is of fundamental interest to basic research and practical applications, such as soft matter devices, biomaterial engineering, and medical sciences. However, it is challenging to measure stress…
Stress is a complex issue with wide-ranging physical and psychological impacts on human daily performance. Specifically, acute stress detection is becoming a valuable application in contextual human understanding. Two common approaches to…
Conventional imaging of diagnostic ultrasound is widely used. Although it makes the differences in the soft tissues echogenicities' apparent and clear, it fails in describing and estimating the soft tissue mechanical properties. It cannot…
Mechanical stress within biological tissue can indicate an anomaly, or can be vital of its function, such as stresses in arteries. Measuring these stresses in tissue is challenging due to the complex, and often unknown, nature of the…
Excessive loads near wounds produce pathological scarring and other complications. Presently, stress cannot easily be measured by surgeons in the operating room. Instead, surgeons rely on intuition and experience. Predictive computational…
The stress detection problem is receiving great attention in related research communities. This is due to its essential part in behavioral studies for many serious health problems and physical illnesses. There are different methods and…
In the course of animal development, the shape of tissue emerges in part from mechanical and biochemical interactions between cells. Measuring stress in tissue is essential for studying morphogenesis and its physical constraints.…
In medicolegal situations, the consequences of a stabbing incident are described in terms that are qualitative without being quantitative. Here, the mechanical variables involved in knife-tissue penetration events are used to determine the…
Measuring stress levels in loaded structures is crucial to assess and monitor their health, and to predict the length of their remaining structural life. However, measuring stress non-destructively has proved quite challenging. Many…
In vivo skin exhibits viscoelastic, hyper-elastic and non-linear characteristics. It is under a constant non-equibiaxial tension in its natural configuration and is reinforced with oriented collagen fibers, giving rise to anisotropic…
Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a promising imaging modality for mechanical characterization of tissues, offering biomarkers with potential for early and precise diagnosis. While various methods have been developed to extract mechanical…
During morphogenesis, the shape of a tissue emerges from collective cellular behaviors, which are in part regulated by mechanical and biochemical interactions between cells. Quantification of force and stress is therefore necessary to…
Evaluating the mechanical response of fiber-reinforced composites can be extremely time consuming and expensive. Machine learning (ML) techniques offer a means for faster predictions via models trained on existing input-output pairs and…
Microstructural heterogeneity affects the macro-scale behavior of materials. Conversely, load distribution at the macro-scale changes the microstructural response. These up-scaling and down-scaling relations are often modeled using…
Studying the peeling behaviour of adhesives on skin is vital for advancing biomedical applications such as medical adhesives and transdermal patches. Traditional methods like experimental testing and finite element method (FEM), though…
The measurement of shear stress acting on a biologically relevant surface is a challenging problem, particularly in the complex environment of, for example, the vasculature. While an experimental method for the direct detection of wall…
In this work, we develop Gaussian process regression (GPR) models of hyperelastic material behavior. First, we consider the direct approach of modeling the components of the Cauchy stress tensor as a function of the components of the Finger…
Stress is widely recognized as a major contributor to a variety of health issues. Stress prediction using biosignal data recorded by wearables is a key area of study in mobile sensing research because real-time stress prediction can enable…
