Constitutive Modelling of Knitted Abdominal Implants in Numerical Simulations of Repaired Hernia Mechanics

Abstract

The paper presents a numerical approach to describe mechanical behavior of anisotropic textile material, which is a selected abdominal prosthesis. Two constitutive nonlinear concepts are compared. In the first one the material is considered composed from two families of threads (dense net model) and in the second one the material is homogeneous but anisotropic (as proposed by Gassel, Ogden, Holzapfel). Parameters of both models are identified based on experimental tensile tests (uni-axial and bi-axial, simple and cyclic). The constitutive relations are applied in numerical membrane model of the prosthesis applied in the abdominal wall. Its mechanical responses to the pressure loading has been compared, also to deflection experimentally observed in physical model of the operated hernia of the same geometry. The authors find that both constitutive models properly describe the implant’s mechanics, but further studies are needed to possibly approach the outcome of hyperelastic anisotropic model to experimental results obtained for synthetic knit mesh
