The Ogden model and the natural neighbour radial point interpolation method for hyperelastic analyses
Hyperelastic behaviour can be observed in rubber-like materials and biological tissues. Different hyperelastic models have been developed, the neo-Hookean, Mooney–Rivlin, and Ogden are among the most common. F...

Hyperelastic Behaviour of Adhesives and Its Effect on Bonded Joints: An Exploratory Study
Ductile adhesives often present a non-linear behaviour, often considered as elastic-plastic, but it can also be hyperelastic. Although adhesive joints are important for modern manufacture, little information a...

Mobile Application for Aid in Identifying Fall Risk in Elderly: App Fisioberg
The fall of a person can occur at any stage of the individual’s life, but it is more frequent in elderly, representing a high social and economic impact on the country and the world. In this scenario, the prev...
