Perfluorocarbon induces alveolar epithelial cell response through structural and mechanical remodeling.

abstract：:In the present work, a constitutive model for articular cartilage is proposed in finite elasto-viscoplasticity. For simplification, articular cartilage is supposed to be a typical composite composed of a soft basis and a fiber assembly. The stress tensor and free energy function are hence accordingly divided into two ...
