Biphasic Properties of PVAH (Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogel) Reflecting Biomechanical Behavior of the Nucleus Pulposus of the Human Intervertebral Disc
PVAH is a mixture of solid and fluid, but its mechanical behavior has usually been described using solid material models. The purpose of this study was to obtain material properties that can reflect the mechanical behavior of polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel (PVAH) using finite element analysis, a biphasi...
