A 3D finite element model for charged hydrated soft tissue containing charged/uncharged solutes was developed based on the multi-phasic mechano-electrochemical mixture theory [1–2]. This model was applied to analyze the mechanical, chemical and electrical signals within the human intervertebral disc under mechanical loading. The effects of tissue composition and material property on the physical signals and the transport of fluid, ions and nutrients were investigated. This study is important for understanding disc biomechanics, disc nutrition and disc mechanobiology.

In this work we develop a methodology to characterize in vivo the passive mechanical behavior of abdominal muscle, using for that finite element simulations combined with inverse analysis and optimization algorithms. The knowledge of the mechanical response of the muscle is needed to determine the features of the mesh in cases of hernia surgery.
