[0051] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. In addition, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0052] In order to illustrate the effectiveness of the method proposed in the present invention, the above technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below through a specific embodiment. Figure 1As shown, a constitutive modeling method suitable for J-shaped soft tissue is disclosed, and the specific implementation steps are as follows:
[0053] Step S1: Process the soft tissue using a tissue staining method to obtain the volume fractions of matrix, collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the soft tissue.
[0054] In some embodiments, the specific steps of processing the soft tissue using the tissue staining method may include: using different staining reagents to mark and stain the matrix, collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the soft tissue. The stained soft tissue is imaged and analyzed using an optical microscope or imaging equipment, and the volume fractions of the matrix, collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the soft tissue are calculated using image analysis software, and the obtained volume fractions are used as known parameters for subsequent model construction.
[0055] By predetermining these volume fractions, the three parameters that need to be fitted in the constitutive model can be reduced. The reduction in the number of parameters helps to improve the model fitting efficiency and the overall robustness of the model.
[0056] Step S2, determining an isotropic matrix item based on the characteristics of the interstitial cells and endothelial cells in the matrix; determining a collagen fiber item based on the characteristics of curling and straightening of collagen fibers, fiber rotation, and inter-fiber slippage; and determining an elastic fiber item based on the fiber rotation characteristics of elastic fibers;
[0057] The present invention decouples the strain energy density of soft tissue and decomposes the mechanical response of the whole tissue into the contribution of three main components, including: elastic fibers (e), collagen fibers (c) and matrix (m) composed of connective tissues such as interstitial cells and endothelial cells. The mechanical contributions of the three are weighted by their respective volume fractions. The expression of the strain energy density function is:
[0058] Ψ(C)=φ c Ψ c (C)+φ e Ψ e (C)+φ m Ψ m (C)
[0059] Where C represents the Cauchy-Green strain tensor, Ψ(C) is the total strain energy density, Ψ c (C),Ψ e (C),Ψ m (C) are the strain energy densities of collagen fibers, elastic fibers and matrix terms, φ c ,φ e ,φ m are the volume fractions of collagen fibers, elastic fibers and matrix terms, respectively.
[0060] By deducing the 2nd-Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensor, the expression of tissue stress response S is obtained as follows:
[0061]
[0062] Where E = (CI) / 2 is the Green-Lagrange strain tensor, I is the unit tensor, and p is the Lagrange multiplier. p is introduced to describe the incompressibility of the tissue.
[0063] In the above manner, the present invention decomposes the mechanical response of soft tissue into the contribution of each component, and can directly measure the volume fraction through the experimental means in step S1, thereby simplifying the construction of the model.
[0064] (1) For the matrix composed of connective tissues such as interstitial cells and endothelial cells, the present invention adopts isotropy to model it. The 2nd Piola Kirchhoff stress response S of the matrix composed of connective tissues such as interstitial cells and endothelial cells is m The expression is:
[0065]
[0066] Among them, κ m represents the stiffness parameter of the matrix and I1 represents the first strain tensor invariant.
[0067] S m as the matrix item.
[0068] (2) For collagen fibers, the present invention analyzes their mechanical properties and establishes collagen fiber terms. For a single fiber, Figure 3 As shown in Figure 2, the elongation deformation of the fiber includes fiber curling and straightening and fiber sliding. The density function of the collagen fiber term Ψ c (C) consists of two parts, namely, Ψ c (C)=Ψ f (C)+Ψ pg (C), where Ψ f (C) is the strain energy density of fiber curling and straightening, Ψ pg (C) is the strain energy density of fiber slip.
[0069] For the straightening of the curled fibers, Figure 3 As shown, L f is the arc length of a single collagen fiber, and L is the end-to-end length. Assume that the fiber waviness w = L f / L, w>1, the larger the w value, the higher the curling degree of the single fiber. Total stretching excluding fiber slippage where λ sIt is a relaxation stretch, which means stretching a single fiber before it is straightened. is the actual stretching of the fiber. The end-to-end distance after stretching is l. When l>L f hour, Assume that the fiber does not bear compressive loads but only tensile loads, so when w<λ f The fiber is loaded only when
[0070] The fiber waviness w conforms to the normal distribution D(w), and the collagen fibers with common orientation are considered to be subjected to uniaxial strain. Fiber assembly, uniaxial strain The expression is:
[0071]
[0072] The collagen fibers with common orientation are regarded as a fiber collection subjected to uniaxial strain. The strain energy of the fiber collection is ens (E f ) satisfies the following form:
[0073]
[0074] Among them, κ c represents the stiffness parameter of collagen fibers, d c A parameter that represents the degree of nonlinearity of collagen fibers during deformation.
[0075] Then it contains n f The expression for the 2nd Piola Kirchhoff stress response of the fibers formed by root fibrils is:
[0076]
[0077] Here, α represents the ratio of the fiber slip length to the load elongation.
[0078] Since collagen fibers have a certain orientation in tissues, it is assumed that the orientation of collagen fibers along the circumferential axis is calibrated at an angle θ that follows a normal distribution Γ c (θ). Under the affine assumption, the 2nd PiolaKirchhoff stress response expression of collagen fiber curling and straightening at the tissue level is:
[0079]
[0080] Where N is the direction in tissue space, N(θ) = [cos(θ), sin(θ), 0], θ is the calibration angle along the circumferential axis, Represents the outer product.
[0081] Let Γ1(β) be the fiber orientation distribution in the deformed state, and Γ0(θ) be the fiber orientation distribution in the reference state. Since adjacent fibers remain adjacent, the number of fibers dN around the angle β remains unchanged after the angle θ is rotated and reoriented, as follows:
[0082] Γ1(β)dβ=Γ0(θ)dθ=dN
[0083] Therefore, the angular distribution of the fiber after rotation is:
[0084]
[0085] Among them, λ x ,λ y are the elongation rates of the x and y axes, D is the distance between fibers.
[0086] n f For a fiber formed by a root fibril, the strain of the fiber bundle in the direction of θ is:
[0087]
[0088] Among them, λ p The calculation expression is
[0089] The strain energy density of PGs satisfies:
[0090]
[0091] Among them, κ pg represents the average stiffness of collagen fibers composed of multiple fibrils, d pg A parameter that represents the degree of nonlinearity of collagen fibers during slip deformation.
[0092] The stress response of fiber slip is for:
[0093]
[0094] Among them, D(λ f ) represents the normal distribution of waviness. Substitute into λ f The value of .
[0095] The 2nd Piola Kirchhoff stress response of collagen fibers at the tissue level considering fiber curling, straightening, rotation and slippage is:
[0096]
[0097] Among them, S f and S pg are the fiber tensile stress response and sliding stress response, respectively.f and S pg Together they form the collagen fibers.
[0098] Through the above-mentioned method, the present invention establishes collagen fiber terms including curling and straightening, rotational reorientation and sliding of the fibers, which can describe and predict the mechanical response of the collagen fibers.
[0099] (3) For elastic fibers, considering the rotation of elastic fibers, the following elastin strain energy function is used:
[0100]
[0101] Among them, κ e is the effective elastin fiber modulus, E f is the elastin fiber strain, d e It is a parameter of the nonlinear degree of elastic fiber during deformation.
[0102] The orientation of elastin fibers follows a normal distribution Γ e (θ), then the stress response S of the elastin fiber with rotational motion e The expression is:
[0103]
[0104] S e As the spandex item.
[0105] Step S3: combining the matrix item, collagen fiber item and elastic fiber item to obtain a parameter model to be determined.
[0106] The expression of the complete constitutive model with undetermined parameters is:
[0107] S=φ c S c +φ e S e +φ m S m
[0108] Where S represents the tissue-level stress response.
[0109] In the tensile process of fibers, they are often expressed as fiber families in several representative directions under load. In practical applications, this constitutive model involves multiple integrations, which results in low computational efficiency. i The sum of the fiber bundles under the typical direction is that under the tension of the tissue level S, the fibers in the soft tissue are gradually recruited and manifested as fiber bundles in multiple main directions, which has a clear physical meaning. At this time, the 2nd Piola Kirchhoff stress response is:
[0110]
[0111] Among them, θ i represents the calibration angle of the ith circumferential axis, n f Indicates the number of protofibrils contained in the collagen fiber, n c Indicates the number of typical directions of collagen fibers after being stressed, n e It represents the typical number of directions of elastic fiber after being stressed, and is taken as n c ,n e =3. N i represents the i-th typical direction.
[0112] The tissue level stress response S is determined as the unknown parameter model.
[0113] Step S4, adding the volume fractions of the matrix, collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the soft tissue to the undetermined parameter model; using the nearest global optimal differential evolution algorithm to solve the undetermined parameters in the undetermined parameter model to obtain a hyperelastic constitutive model.
[0114] In this step, the volume fractions of the matrix, collagen fibers and elastic fibers obtained by experimental measurement in step S1 are substituted into the undetermined parameter model to reduce the number of parameters that need to be fitted.
[0115] Then the differential evolution algorithm is used to fit the parameters. Loss function for:
[0116]
[0117] in, is the experimental data of the jth data 1 direction, is the model calculation value of the jth data in the 2nd direction. n represents the number of data in the test point, including circumferential and radial data points.
[0118] Evaluation of fitting ability R 2 The calculation formula is as follows:
[0119]
[0120] where y j is the jth data value, is the predicted value of the constitutive model corresponding to the jth data, is the average value of the jth experimental data.
[0121] After parameter fitting, the hyperelastic constitutive model of J-type soft tissue is finally obtained.
[0122] Step S5: using the hyperelastic constitutive model to obtain multiple mechanical parameters of soft tissue fibers.
[0123] In some embodiments, the tensile physical parameters are input into the hyperelastic constitutive model of the J-type soft tissue to obtain corresponding multiple mechanical parameters, which include matrix membrane stress, elastic fiber membrane stress, collagen fiber membrane stress, and membrane stress corresponding to straightening, rotation and slippage of curled fibers.
[0124] Through the hyperelastic constitutive model, the present invention can separate the mechanical contribution of each component and quantitatively calculate the kinematic mechanical behavior of various fibers. Specifically, the present invention can obtain the stress proportions of various components such as matrix term, elastic fiber term and elastic fiber term, and can obtain the stress proportions of various kinematic mechanical behaviors such as fiber straightening, rotation and slippage.
[0125] In order to verify the validity of the constitutive model proposed in this invention, the biaxial tensile test data of the tricuspid valve is used for verification. Figure 3 As shown in Table 1, under the given conditions, the method proposed in the present invention is compared with the traditional Fung exponential constitutive model. The results are shown in the table. The analysis of the fitting accuracy shows that the hyperelastic constitutive model of the J-type soft tissue provided by the present invention can fully couple physical information under the condition of biaxial tension in the plane, and each physical parameter involved has a distinct physical meaning, while the fitting accuracy is higher. This shows that the constitutive model proposed in the present invention makes full use of the physical information of the tissue and shows a strong descriptive potential in fitting this J-type soft tissue material.
