Constitutive modelling of skin mechanics

Constitutive modelling of skin mechanics
Constitutive modelling of skin mechanics
The objective of this chapter is to provide a structured review of constitutive models of skin mechanics valid for finite deformations, with special emphasis on state-of-the-art anisotropic formulations which are essential in most advanced modelling applications. The fundamental structural and material characteristics of the skin, necessary for understanding its mechanics and for the formulation of constitutive equations, are briefly presented.

Abstract

The objective of this chapter is to provide a structured review of constitutive models of skin mechanics valid for finite deformations, with special emphasis on state-of-the-art anisotropic formulations which are essential in most advanced modelling applications. The fundamental structural and material characteristics of the skin, necessary for understanding its mechanics and for the formulation of constitutive equations, are briefly presented.
