Remote Characterization of the Mechanical Properties of Ocular Tissues

Friday, April 20, 2012 12:30 p.m. CPE 2.216 Sangpil Yoon The University of Texas at Austin Department of Mechanical Engineering http://www.me.utexas.edu/ A new approach to measure the mechanical properties of soft tissues is presented. Quantitative measurements of the mechanical properties were achieved by model-based reconstruction. These highly localized measurements provide detailed information about the viscoelastic…
