Collagen is the most abundant protein in mammals, often serving as the main load bearing
constituent in soft tissues. Collagen undergoes continuous remodeling processes in which …

We consider a cylindrical membrane that consists of an isotropic ground substance and
fibers symmetrically arranged in two helically distributed families which are mechanically …

In this article, we study the inflation and bulging of fiber reinforced hyperelastic membranes
in which fibers are symmetrically arranged in two helically distributed families that are …

In this article, we apply sensitivity analysis (SA) to study the pressure–inflation relation and
axial force in a pressurized and extended cylindrical tube. The material consists of an …

We analyze bifurcation for a cylindrical membrane capable of swelling subjected to
combined axial loading and internal pressure. The material is conceptualized as an isotropic …

The authors have observed that a stress-strain curve for uniaxial tension of an aortic intact
wall cannot be simply obtained by combining the strain energy functions of the three …

This paper deals with applying two main sensitivity analysis (SA) methods, namely, the
Sobol method and the Fourier Amplitude Sensitivity Test (FAST) method on the problem of …

The helical stability experienced by elastic cylinders is investigated using numerical
methods. A doubly fiber-reinforced incompressible nonlinear elastic tube subject to axial …

The influence of swelling on prismatic and bending bifurcation modes of inflated thin-walled
cylinders under axial loading is examined. The bifurcation criteria for a membrane cylinder …

We consider a tubular membrane whose mechanical behavior is defined by a strain energy
density function that combines the neo-Hookean model with the Demiray model. Both, the …
