剪切软组织的表面不稳定性

Surface instability of sheared soft tissues

M. Destrade, M. D. Gilchrist, D. A. Prikazchikov, G. Saccomandi

摘要:

当由弹性体制成的块受到大的剪切时,其表面保持平坦。当一块生物软组织受到大的剪切时,它在剪切平面内的表面很可能会弯曲(出现皱纹)。将软组织与橡胶状固体区分开来的一个因素是定向胶原纤维束的存在(有时肉眼可见),其比它们嵌入其中的弹性蛋白基质更硬,但仍然是柔性和可延伸的。在这里,我们表明,各向同性非线性弹性的最简单的模型,即不可压缩的neo-Hookean模型,遭受表面不稳定的剪切只有在巨大的剪切量,即,高于3.09,这对应于72度的剪切角。接下来,我们将一个家庭的平行纤维的模型,并表明所得到的固体可以加强或强烈削弱相对于表面的不稳定性,这取决于纤维之间的角度和剪切方向,并取决于纤维的刚度和矩阵之间的比例E/mu。对于这个比例,我们使用与软组织实验数据相一致的值。广义上说,我们发现,表面变得迅速不稳定时,剪切发生“反对”的纤维,并作为E/μ增加,所以没有部门的角度,预计将发生早期不稳定。

英文摘要:

When a block made of an elastomer is subjected to large shear, its surface remains flat. When a block of biological soft tissue is subjected to large shear, it is likely that its surface in the plane of shear will buckle (apparition of wrinkles). One factor that distinguishes soft tissues from rubber-like solids is the presence -- sometimes visible to the naked eye -- of oriented collagen fibre bundles, which are stiffer than the elastin matrix into which they are embedded but are nonetheless flexible and extensible. Here we show that the simplest model of isotropic nonlinear elasticity, namely the incompressible neo-Hookean model, suffers surface instability in shear only at tremendous amounts of shear, i.e., above 3.09, which corresponds to a 72 degrees angle of shear. Next we incorporate a family of parallel fibres in the model and show that the resulting solid can be either reinforced or strongly weakened with respect to surface instability, depending on the angle between the fibres and the direction of shear, and depending on the ratio E/mu between the stiffness of the fibres and that of the matrix. For this ratio we use values compatible with experimental data on soft tissues. Broadly speaking, we find that the surface becomes rapidly unstable when the shear takes place "against" the fibres, and that as E/mu increases, so does the sector of angles where early instability is expected to occur.
