The gastrointestinal (GI) organs of the human body are responsible for transporting and
extracting nutrients from food and drink, as well as excreting solid waste. Biomechanical …

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a continuous channel through the body that consists of the
esophagus, the stomach, the small intestine, the large intestine, and the rectum. Its primary …

A displacement and rotation‐based dynamic finite element formulation for Cosserat plates is
discussed in detail in this paper. Special attention is given to the validation of the element …

Esophageal stent placement has significantly improved the quality of life in patients with
malignant as well as benign esophageal obstructing lesions. Despite its early success and …

The strength of soft tissues is due mainly to collagen fibers. In most collagenous tissues, the
arrangement of the fibers is random, but has preferred directions. The random arrangement …

This paper introduces robotic implants as a novel class of medical robots in the context of
treating esophageal atresia. The robotic implant is designed to apply traction forces to the …

Understanding mechanical characterization of the esophagus tissue layers is a step forward
to the development of esophageal behavior, peristaltic simulation, and advanced clinical …
