Modelling of Abdominal Wall Under Uncertainty of Material Properties
PublikacjaThe paper concerns abdominal wall modelling. The accurate prediction and simulation of abdominal wall mechanics are important in the context of optimization of ventral hernia repair. The shell Finite Element model is considered, as the one which can be used in patient-specific approach due to relatively easy geometry generation. However, there are uncertainties in this issue, e.g. related to mechanical properties since the properties...

Isogeometric Shell FE Analysis of the Human Abdominal Wall
PublikacjaIn this paper a nonlinear isogeometric Kirchhoff-Love shell model of the human abdominal wall is proposed. Its geometry is based on in vivo measurements obtained from a polygon mesh that is transformed into a NURBS surface, and then used directly for the finite element analysis. The passive response of the abdominal wall model under uniform pressure is considered. A hyperelastic membrane model based on the Gasser-Ogden-Holzapfel...

Mechanical compatibility of implants used in hernia repair with abdominal wall
PublikacjaThe paper deals with a membrane model of a synthetic surgical mesh for treatment of abdominal hernia. The authors analyse the compatibility of two implant types with the human wall: Dualmesh Gore and Proceed. The finite element method is applied to simulate tjhe behavior of the proposed model. Due fact that recurrences are usually caused by connection failure, this study is focused on reaction forces in supports representing the...

Material Identification of the Human Abdominal Wall Based On the Isogeometric Shell Model
PublikacjaThe human abdominal wall is an object of interest to the research community in the context of ventral hernia repair. Computer models require a priori knowledge of constitutive parameters in order to establish its mechanical response. In this work, the Finite Element Model Updating (FEMU) method is used to identify an heterogeneous shear modulus distribution for a human abdominal wall model, which is based on nonlinear isogeometric...

Membrane model of human abdominal wall. Simulations vs. in vivo measurements
PublikacjaThe study presents a methodology of defining a numerical model of human abdominal wall based on the experimentally registered data of the abdomen geometry due to variations of the intraabdominal pressure. The abdominal wall is modelled here as a simple homogeneous membrane structure made of linear orthotropic material The displacements registered during the increase of pressure are compared with the re-sults of the model static...

Global sensitivity analysis of membrane model of abdominal wall with surgical mesh
PublikacjaThe paper addresses the issue of ventral hernia repair. Finite Element simulations can be helpful in the optimization of hernia parameters. A membrane abdominal wall model is proposed in two variants: a healthy one and including hernia defect repaired by implant. The models include many uncertainties, e.g. due to variability of abdominal wall, intraabdominal pressure value etc. Measuring mechanical properties with high accuracy...

Full-field in vivo experimental study of the strains of a breathing human abdominal wall with intra-abdominal pressure variation
PublikacjaThe presented study aims to assess the mechanical behaviour of the anterior abdominal wall based on an in vivo experiment on humans. Full-field measurement of abdominal wall displacement during changes of intra-abdominal pressure is performed using a digital image correlation (DIC) system. Continuous measurement in time enables the observation of changes in the strain field during breathing. The understanding of the mechanical...

Biomechanics of the front abdominal wall as a potential factorleading to recurrence with laparoscopic ventral hernia repair
PublikacjaThis study investigated the front abdominal wallto describe its elasticity in vivo and searched for elongationsthat possibly stretched an implanted mesh, therebycausing fixation failure and subsequent recurrence.To measure front abdominal wall elongations, amodel of fascia movements was created. Eight healthyvolunteers were measured during exercise to determine theextent of elongations in their front abdominal wall. Videoswere...

Mechanics of mesh implanted into abdominal wall under repetitive load. Experimental and numerical study
PublikacjaThere are a number of papers discussing medical and mechanical aspects of ventral hernia management. Despite intensive work on the problem understanding, recurrences of the sickness still happen too often. For that reason new aspects of the problem must be considered. In this paper, a change in the abdominal implant’s stiffness is discussed, which is caused by cyclic loading. Such loading influence abdominal implant e.g. while...
