A phenomenological approach toward patient-specific computational modeling of articular cartilage including collagen fiber tracking

To model the cartilage morphology and the material response, a phenomenological and patient-specific simulation approach incorporating the collagen fiber fabric is proposed. Cartilage tissue response is nearly isochoric and time-dependent under physiological pressure levels. Hence, a viscoelastic co...
