Abstract:
The assessment of the mechanical properties of heart tissue which is very soft as other biological tissues should be done in a liquid environment. This is a necessary condition in order to avoid the degradation of the material properties due to drying. We believe that an appropriate experimental approach is the depth sensing indentation in liquid environment. The test, though being well mastered for conventional materials in ambient air, requires a deep investigation when it is performed in liquid environment. The work presented here is concerned with the way to extract the mechanical properties of a sample from the indention curve (load versus penetration curve) obtained in liquid environment.
