Abstract:Given the importance of hyperelastic constitutive models in the design of engineering components, researchers have been developing the improved and new constitutive models in search of a more accurate and even universal performance. Here, a modified hyperelastic constitutive model based on the Yeoh model is proposed to improve its prediction performance for multiaxial deformation of hyperelastic polymeric materials while retaining the advantages of the original Yeoh model. The modified constitutive model has o… Show more
“…These models enable a more accurate and comprehensive characterisation of the mechanical response of hydrogels, enhancing our understanding of their behaviour under various loading conditions. 41 The characterisation of the materials using these mechanical models also allows a better quantitative appreciation of the variability of the properties highlighted in Fig. 1 .…”
A new 3D bioprinted biomaterial, with flax fiber-reinforced alginate hydrogel, is developed. The study assesses the impact of flax fibers on 3D printing, mechanical, 4D printing, and geometric properties of the composite.
