A novel in vivo approach to assess strains of the human abdominal wall under known intraabdominal pressure [PDF]
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 125
(2022) 104902, 2021 The study concerns mechanical behaviour of a living human abdominal wall. A better mechanical understanding of a human abdominal wall and recognition of its material properties is required to find mechanically compatible surgical meshes to significantly improve the treatment of ventral hernias.

Computational modelling of peritoneal dialysis: an overview [PDF]
, 2023 Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is becoming more popular as a result of a rising interest in home dialysis, lower intrusion in social life and longer preservation of residual kidney function. However, PD has several important drawbacks: small solute clearance is relatively low compared to hemodialysis and technique survival is limited.
