Simulating the swelling and deformation behaviour in soft tissues using a convective thermal analogy

BACKGROUND: It is generally accepted that cartilage adaptation and degeneration are mechanically mediated. Investigating the swelling behaviour of cartilage is important because the stress and strain state of cartilage is associated with the swelling and deformation behaviour. It is well accepted th...
