Abstract

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Various analyses have been performed to identify the mechanical properties of the human skin tissue in vivo. They generally use different approaches and hypotheses (behavior laws as well as mechanical tests) and the obtained results are consequently difficult to analyze and compa...
