Rheological analysis of soft collagenous tissue. Part II: experimental evaluations and verifications.
As a direct continuation of Part I, where the theoretical background for the rheological model was discussed, possible operations on the model are discussed and performed on anterior cruciate ligament preparations from rabbits. Different methods of evaluating model constants are compared and other mathematical expressions than those of the model proposed are tried and discussed. Model parts are verified and numerical values are given for certain constants.
