Generalized Fractional Derivative Anisotropic Viscoelastic Characterization.

ABSTRACT: Isotropic linear and nonlinear fractional derivative constitutive relations are formulated and examined in terms of many parameter generalized Kelvin models and are analytically extended to cover general anisotropic homogeneous or non-homogeneous as well as functionally graded viscoelastic material behavior. Equivalent integral constitutive relations, which are computationally more powerful, are derived from fractional differential ones and the associated anisotropic temperature-moisture-degree-of-cure shift functions and reduced times are established. Approximate Fourier transform inversions for fractional derivative relations are formulated and their accuracy is evaluated. The efficacy of integer and fractional derivative constitutive relations is compared and the preferential use of either characterization in analyzing isotropic and anisotropic real materials must be examined on a case-by-case basis. Approximate protocols for curve fitting analytical fractional derivative results to experimental data are formulated and evaluated.

Eccentric rheometry for viscoelastic characterization of small, soft, anisotropic, and irregularly shaped biopolymer gels and tissue biopsies.

Project description:Quantification of the physical properties of tissue biopsies and cell-remodeled hydrogels is critical for understanding tissue development and pathophysiological tissue remodeling. However, due to the low modulus, small size, irregular shape, and anisotropy of samples from these materials, accurate viscoelastic characterization using standard rheometric methods is problematic. The goal of this work is to utilize image analysis to extend rotational rheometry to these samples. In this method, the sample is offset to increase the torque generated; a custom clear glass geometry, right angle prism, and camera are used to determine the exact shape and location of the sample relative to the axis of rotation for calculation of the sample shear modulus, G'. Values of G' for standard polydimethylsiloxane gels tested in centered and eccentric configurations were not statistically different (respectively 137 ± 37 kPa and 126 ± 8 kPa, p = 0.58), indicating accuracy of the method. Additionally, G' values from circular and irregularly shaped collagen gels yielded equivalent results (31 ± 1.8 Pa and 31 ± 5.1 Pa, p = 0.29). A blood clot and a lipid plaque sample recovered from human patients (G' ~ 4 kPa) were successfully tested with this method demonstrating applicability to clinical diagnostics.

Rheological properties of porcine organs: measurements and fractional viscoelastic model.

Project description:The rheological properties of porcine heart, kidney, liver and brain were measured using dynamic oscillatory shear tests over a range of frequencies and shear strains. Frequency sweep tests were performed from 0.1 Hz to a maximum of 9.5 Hz at a shear strain of 0.1%, and strain sweep tests were carried out from 0.01% to 10% at 1 Hz. The effect of pre-compression of samples up to 10% axial strain was considered. The experimental measurements were fit to a Semi-Fractional Kelvin Voight (S-FKV) model. The model was then used to predict the stress relaxation in response to a step strain of 0.1%. The prediction was compared to experimental relaxation data for the porcine organ samples, and the results agreed to within 30%. In conclusion, this study measured the rheological properties of porcine organs and used a fractional viscoelastic model to describe the response in frequency and time domain.

A generalized strain approach to anisotropic elasticity.

Project description:This work proposes a generalized Lagrangian strain function [Formula: see text] (that depends on modified stretches) and a volumetric strain function [Formula: see text] (that depends on the determinant of the deformation tensor) to characterize isotropic/anisotropic strain energy functions. With the aid of a spectral approach, the single-variable strain functions enable the development of strain energy functions that are consistent with their infinitesimal counterparts, including the development of a strain energy function for the general anisotropic material that contains the general 4th order classical stiffness tensor. The generality of the single-variable strain functions sets a platform for future development of adequate specific forms of the isotropic/anisotropic strain energy function; future modellers only require to construct specific forms of the functions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to model their strain energy functions. The spectral invariants used in the constitutive equation have a clear physical interpretation, which is attractive, in aiding experiment design and the construction of specific forms of the strain energy. Some previous strain energy functions that appeared in the literature can be considered as special cases of the proposed generalized strain energy function. The resulting constitutive equations can be easily converted, to allow the mechanical influence of compressed fibres to be excluded or partial excluded and to model fibre dispersion in collagenous soft tissues. Implementation of the constitutive equations in Finite Element software is discussed. The suggested crude specific strain function forms are able to fit the theory well with experimental data and managed to predict several sets of experimental data.

An efficient and accurate method for modeling nonlinear fractional viscoelastic biomaterials.

Project description:Computational biomechanics plays an important role in biomedical engineering: using modeling to understand pathophysiology, treatment and device design. While experimental evidence indicates that the mechanical response of most tissues is viscoelastic, current biomechanical models in the computational community often assume hyperelastic material models. Fractional viscoelastic constitutive models have been successfully used in literature to capture viscoelastic material response; however, the translation of these models into computational platforms remains limited. Many experimentally derived viscoelastic constitutive models are not suitable for three-dimensional simulations. Furthermore, the use of fractional derivatives can be computationally prohibitive, with a number of current numerical approximations having a computational cost that is 𝒪(NT2) and a storage cost that is 𝒪(NT ) (NT denotes the number of time steps). In this paper, we present a novel numerical approximation to the Caputo derivative which exploits a recurrence relation similar to those used to discretize classic temporal derivatives, giving a computational cost that is 𝒪(NT ) and a storage cost that is fixed over time. The approximation is optimized for numerical applications, and an error estimate is presented to demonstrate the efficacy of the method. The method, integrated into a finite element solid mechanics framework, is shown to be unconditionally stable in the linear viscoelastic case. It was then integrated into a computational biomechanical framework, with several numerical examples verifying the accuracy and computational efficiency of the method, including in an analytic test, in an analytic fractional differential equation, as well as in a computational biomechanical model problem.

Anisotropic viscoelastic phase separation in polydisperse hard rods leads to nonsticky gelation.

Project description:Spinodal demixing into two phases having very different viscosities leads to viscoelastic networks-i.e., gels-usually as a result of attractive particle interactions. Here, however, we demonstrate demixing in a colloidal system of polydisperse, rod-like clay particles that is driven by particle repulsions instead. One of the phases is a nematic liquid crystal with a highly anisotropic viscosity, allowing flow along the director, but suppressing it in other directions. This phase coexists with a dilute isotropic phase. Real-space analysis and molecular-dynamics simulations both reveal a long-lived network structure that is locally anisotropic, yet macroscopically isotropic. We show that our system exhibits the characteristics of colloidal gelation, leading to nonsticky gels.

Rayleigh-Lamb wave propagation on a fractional order viscoelastic plate.

Project description:A previous study of the authors published in this journal focused on mechanical wave motion in a viscoelastic material representative of biological tissue [Meral et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 126, 3278-3285 (2009)]. Compression, shear and surface wave motion in and on a viscoelastic halfspace excited by surface and sub-surface sources were considered. It was shown that a fractional order Voigt model, where the rate-dependent damping component that is dependent on the first derivative of time is replaced with a component that is dependent on a fractional derivative of time, resulted in closer agreement with experiment as compared with conventional (integer order) models, such as those of Voigt and Zener. In the present study, this analysis is extended to another configuration and wave type: out-of-plane response of a viscoelastic plate to harmonic anti-symmetric Lamb wave excitation. Theoretical solutions are compared with experimental measurements for a polymeric tissue mimicking phantom material. As in the previous configurations the fractional order modeling assumption improves the match between theory and experiment over a wider frequency range. Experimental complexities in the present study and the reliability of the different approaches for quantifying the shear viscoelastic properties of the material are discussed.

Measuring memory with the order of fractional derivative.

Project description:Fractional derivative has a history as long as that of classical calculus, but it is much less popular than it should be. What is the physical meaning of fractional derivative? This is still an open problem. In modeling various memory phenomena, we observe that a memory process usually consists of two stages. One is short with permanent retention, and the other is governed by a simple model of fractional derivative. With the numerical least square method, we show that the fractional model perfectly fits the test data of memory phenomena in different disciplines, not only in mechanics, but also in biology and psychology. Based on this model, we find that a physical meaning of the fractional order is an index of memory.

Generalized Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities involving fractional integral operators.

Project description:In this article, a new general integral identity involving generalized fractional integral operators is established. With the help of this identity new Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities are obtained for functions whose absolute values of derivatives are convex. As a consequence, the main results of this paper generalize the existing Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities involving the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral.

A generalized fractional-order elastodynamic theory for non-local attenuating media.

Project description:This study presents a generalized elastodynamic theory, based on fractional-order operators, capable of modelling the propagation of elastic waves in non-local attenuating solids and across complex non-local interfaces. Classical elastodynamics cannot capture hybrid field transport processes that are characterized by simultaneous propagation and diffusion. The proposed continuum mechanics formulation, which combines fractional operators in both time and space, offers unparalleled capabilities to predict the most diverse combinations of multiscale, non-local, dissipative and attenuating elastic energy transport mechanisms. Despite the many features of this theory and the broad range of applications, this work focuses on the behaviour and modelling capabilities of the space-fractional term and on its effect on the elastodynamics of solids. We also derive a generalized fractional-order version of Snell's Law of refraction and of the corresponding Fresnel's coefficients. This formulation allows predicting the behaviour of fully coupled elastic waves interacting with non-local interfaces. The theoretical results are validated via direct numerical simulations.

Desert soil clay content estimation using reflectance spectroscopy preprocessed by fractional derivative.

Project description:Effective pretreatment of spectral reflectance is vital to model accuracy in soil parameter estimation. However, the classic integer derivative has some disadvantages, including spectral information loss and the introduction of high-frequency noise. In this paper, the fractional order derivative algorithm was applied to the pretreatment and partial least squares regression (PLSR) was used to assess the clay content of desert soils. Overall, 103 soil samples were collected from the Ebinur Lake basin in the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region of China, and used as data sets for calibration and validation. Following laboratory measurements of spectral reflectance and clay content, the raw spectral reflectance and absorbance data were treated using the fractional derivative order from the 0.0 to the 2.0 order (order interval: 0.2). The ratio of performance to deviation (RPD), determinant coefficients of calibration ([Formula: see text]), root mean square errors of calibration (RMSEC), determinant coefficients of prediction ([Formula: see text]), and root mean square errors of prediction (RMSEP) were applied to assess the performance of predicting models. The results showed that models built on the fractional derivative order performed better than when using the classic integer derivative. Comparison of the predictive effects of 22 models for estimating clay content, calibrated by PLSR, showed that those models based on the fractional derivative 1.8 order of spectral reflectance ([Formula: see text] = 0.907, RMSEC = 0.425%, [Formula: see text] = 0.916, RMSEP = 0.364%, and RPD = 2.484 ≥ 2.000) and absorbance ([Formula: see text] = 0.888, RMSEC = 0.446%, [Formula: see text] = 0.918, RMSEP = 0.383% and RPD = 2.511 ≥ 2.000) were most effective. Furthermore, they performed well in quantitative estimations of the clay content of soils in the study area.
