Strain and Elastic Modulus

9.2K
The quantity that describes the deformation of a body under stress is known as strain. Strain is given as a fractional change in either length, volume, or geometry under tensile, volume (also known as bulk), or shear stress, respectively, and is a dimensionless quantity. The strain experienced by a body under tensile or compressive stress is called tensile or compressive strain, respectively. In contrast, the strain experienced under bulk stress and shear stress is known as volume and shear...

Elastic Strain Energy for Shearing Stresses

566
As discussed in previous lessons, strain energy in a material is the energy stored when it is elastically deformed, a concept crucial in materials science and mechanical engineering. This energy results from the internal work done against the cohesive forces within the material. When a material undergoes shearing stress and corresponding shearing strain, the strain energy density, which is the energy stored per unit volume, is calculated. Within the elastic limit, where the stress is...

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Medical Imaging
    • Acoustics

    Background:

    • Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) parameters are crucial for detecting diseased states.
    • Current QUS tissue typing often analyzes longitudinal or shear waves separately, missing complementary information.
    • Simultaneous analysis of different wave types offers potential for enhanced tissue characterization.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To implement and evaluate the simultaneous estimation of backscatter coefficients and shear modulus using a clinical ultrasound scanner.
    • To assess the anisotropy ratio of these parameters in different regions of ex vivo porcine kidneys.
    • To demonstrate the combined utility of longitudinal and shear wave-derived QUS parameters.

    Main Methods:

    • Simultaneous estimation of backscatter coefficients (longitudinal waves) and shear modulus (shear waves).
    • Application of the method to five ex vivo porcine kidney samples using a clinical scanner.
    • Calculation of anisotropy ratios by comparing parameter values in middle and pole kidney regions.

    Main Results:

    • Successful simultaneous estimation of QUS parameters from both wave types.
    • Higher parameter values were consistently observed in kidney pole regions compared to middle regions.
    • Significant anisotropy ratios were found: 1.42±0.11 for shear modulus and 3.07±0.70 for backscatter coefficient.

    Conclusions:

    • Simultaneous estimation of QUS parameters from longitudinal and shear waves is feasible with clinical scanners.
    • Combining these parameters provides complementary information for tissue characterization.
    • This integrated approach can enhance the tracking of tissue structural and compositional changes, aiding disease diagnosis.
