Experimental Data of Human Brain Tissue (visual cortex, corona radiata)

Experimental data that we used for our inverse parameter identification of poro-viscoelastic material parameters for two different brain regions: visual cortex (gray matter) and corona radiata (white matter). The data comprises large-strain cyclic loading and compression/tension relaxation. For details see: "Model-driven exploration of poro-viscoelasticity in human brain tissue: Be careful with the parameters!". Further explanation regarding the specimen preparation, experimental setup as well as the assignment of regions and governing regions can be found in Hinrichsen, J., Reiter, N., Bräuer, L. et al.
