In the (post)doctoral researcher’s seminar hosted at the Institute of Applied Mechanics on July 12, Yashasvi Verma and Laura Ruhland presented their latest findings. The seminar focused on project X01, which involves the model-based reconciliation of ex vivo and in vivo test data.

Laura Ruhland started the seminar by discussing the experimental reconciliation of different testing techniques. She presented results on the comparative testing of hydrogels, including the mechanical behavior obtained from rheological measurements and experiments with the Table-Top MRE. An engaged discussion, with questions and contributions from other doctoral researchers of EBM followed her talk.

After a short coffee break, Yashasvi Verma provided insights into the implementation of a vascular structure in the finite element model of the brain. Her presentation focused on applying the model for MRE experiments, with particular attention to the influence of varying boundary conditions and damping parameters.
