A Multi-Layer Finite Element Model Based on Anisotropic Hyperelastic Fiber Reinforcements within Intestinal Walls
The intestinal wall is considered as a highly composite heterogeneous tissue characterized by a strong nonlinear stress-strain passive response with an exponential stiffening effect at higher deformations. The conventional theory of fiber-reinforced elastic solids allows one to describe the anisotro...
