No validated, generally accepted data set on the mechanical properties of brain tissue exists, not even for small strains. Most of the experimental and methodological issues have previously been addressed for linear shear loading. The objective of this work was to obtain a consistent data set for the mechanical response of brain tissue to either compression or shear. Results for these two deformation modes were obtained from the same samples to reduce the effect of inter-sample variation. Since compression tests are not very common, the influence of several experimental conditions for the compression measurements was analysed in detail. Results with and without initial contact of the sample with the loading plate were compared. The influence of a fluid layer surrounding the sample and the effect of friction were examined and were found to play an important role during compression measurements. To validate the non-linear viscoelastic constitutive model of brain tissue that was developed in Hrapko et al. (Biorheology 43 (2006), 623–636) and has shown to provide a good prediction of the shear response, the model has been implemented in the explicit Finite Element code MADYMO. The model predictions were compared to compression relaxation results up to 15% strain of porcine brain tissue samples. Model simulations with boundary conditions varying within the physical ranges of friction, initial contact and compression rate are used to interpret the compression results. |
