Biaxial testing system for characterization of mechanical and rupture properties of small samples [PDF]
HardwareX, 2022 The study of damage and rupture of soft tissues using a tensile testing system is essential to understand the limits of mechanical behavior and loss of function in diseased tissues. However, commercial material testing systems are often expensive and may

Region- and layer-specific investigations of the human menisci using SHG imaging and biaxial testing [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 In this paper, we examine the region- and layer-specific collagen fiber morphology via second harmonic generation (SHG) in combination with planar biaxial tension testing to suggest a structure-based constitutive model for the human meniscal tissue. Five
