..., was applied to each reconstructed mesh. Surface node displacements of each model were fitted to the experimental displacements using an inverse finite element method, which estimated a unique set of 13 model parameters. The predictions of the proposed constitutive model matched the 3D experimental...

... mouse cartilage poroviscoelastic inverse finite element indentation Mouse models are useful for understanding disease processes in articular cartilage, particularly osteoarthritis, and many mutant and transgenic mouse models are available. As part of this development, there is recent interest...
