The Viscoelasticity of Intestines by Dynamical Mechanical Analysis
Abstract:
The research for viscoelasticity of small intestine become significant in engineering due to the development of new medicine instruments such as the capsule robot and intellectualized endoscopy, which may help learn the unknown mechanical interaction between the intestinal tissue and the instrument. Therefore, a research of testing the mechanics of intestinal tissue in this paper is presented, which may help cognize intestinal viscoelasticity. As distinct from the conventional stress relaxation test, DMA (Dynamical Mechanical Analyzer) is applied in the experiment, and a large number of data is obtained by DMA, which have not been used in this area before, and is able to reveal directly the essential viscoelastic parameters of the intestinal tissue. The experiment result explicit the dissipated energy becomes larger when the strain amplitude increases. The DMA test and the experiment analysis introduce a particular angle of view in researching the viscoelasticity of intestinal tissue, and that is convenient for quantitative analysis and synthesis for deeper cognizing intestine in the future.
