Investigating the influence of mineral content changes on mechanical properties through ligament insertion

IntroductionThis study investigates the relationship between mineral content and mechanical properties in collagenous tissues using a mesoscopic model. Unlike previous studies that assumed uniform mineral distributions, our model mimics the impact of combined intrafibrillar and extrafibrillar progre...
