    Area of Science:

    • Biomechanics
    • Biomaterials Science
    • Computational Biology

    Background:

    • Soft tissues, like articular cartilage, are biphasic systems with distinct solid and fluid phases.
    • Biphasic models are crucial for determining tissue mechanical and hydraulic properties from experimental data.
    • Existing analytical solutions are limited to specific compression scenarios (unconfined linear or confined non-linear).

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an easily implementable numerical tool for solving biphasic soft tissue compression models.
    • To address both unconfined and confined compression scenarios under large deformations.
    • To provide a versatile solution for homogeneous and inhomogeneous tissue models.

    Main Methods:

    • Governing differential equations for large deformations were reduced to equivalent diffusive equations.
    • Finite difference (FD) methods were employed to solve these diffusive equations.
    • The approach is applicable to both unconfined and confined compression tests.

    Main Results:

    • A numerical tool was developed to solve the governing equations for large-deformation compression of biphasic soft tissues.
    • The method accommodates both homogeneous and inhomogeneous tissue properties.
    • The tool simplifies the analysis of complex mechanical and hydraulic behaviors.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed numerical strategy offers a benchmark for validating finite element (FE) implementations of material models.
    • This tool facilitates the accurate determination of mechanical and hydraulic properties of soft tissues from experimental compression data.
    • It enhances the understanding and modeling of hydrated soft tissue mechanics.
