Molecular-level collagen damage explains softening and failure of arterial tissues: A quantitative interpretation of CHP data with a novel elasto-damage model
Are you interested in evaluating the mechanical damage of tissues or evaluating how collagen damage influences mechanical properties?? Well, then this paper is for you! A new article published in The Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials shows that CHPs can help give quantitative information regarding the damage to collagen fibers at a molecular level. The authors explain how this molecular-level damage influences the mechanical pr...
