<DIV>Hi Matt,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is really usefull information, thank you very much.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Young's modulus, I found this values in a book:</DIV>
<DIV>http://hh7.net/jan2/hh7net2_12957748891.gif</DIV>
<DIV>could i use it (the average)?<BR><BR>--- On <B>Sat, 1/22/11, Matt McCormick <I><matt@mmmccormick.com></I></B> wrote:<BR></DIV>

<DIV class=plainMail>Hi H.B.,<BR><BR>> From ware could i get Modulus & Poisson Ratio values for Organ like Liver<BR>Blader ....<BR>> As i read The Poisson's ratio of a stable, isotropic, linear<BR>elastic material cannot be less than −1.0 nor greater than 0.5. <BR><BR>The Poisson's Ratio of most naturally occurring materials are greater than<BR>zero. There are some fabricated materials that have a negative Poisson's<BR>Ratio. http://silver.neep.wisc.edu/~lakes/Poisson.html<BR><BR>Most biological soft tissues are considered nearly incompressible, i.e.<BR>Poisson's Ratio of ~0.5. For finite element modeling, a value less that 0.5<BR>should be chosen, e.g. 0.495, to avoid problems.<BR><BR>Young's modulus values for soft tissues are usually on the order of 10's of<BR>kPa, but you will need to find an article where mechanical testing was done on<BR>your tissue of
interest.<BR><BR>Matt<BR><BR><BR>_____________________________________<BR>Powered by <A href="http://www.kitware.com/" target=_blank>www.kitware.com</A><BR><BR>Visit other Kitware open-source projects at<BR>http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html<BR><BR>Kitware offers ITK Training Courses, for more information visit:<BR>http://www.kitware.com/products/protraining.html<BR><BR>Please keep messages on-topic and check the ITK FAQ at:<BR>http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_FAQ<BR><BR>Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe:<BR>http://www.itk.org/mailman/listinfo/insight-users<BR></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR></DIV></DIV></div><br>
