Background Pressure-induced tissue strain is one major pathway for Pressure Ulcer development and, especially, Deep Tissue Injury. Biomechanical investigation of the time-dependent stress–strain mechanical behaviour of skeletal muscle tissue is therefore essential. In the literature, a viscoelastic formulation is generally assumed for the experimental characterization of skeletal muscles, with the limitation that the underlying physical mechanisms that give rise to the time dependent stress–strain behaviour are not known. The objective of this study is to explore the capability of poroelasticity to reproduce the apparent viscoelastic behaviour of passive muscle tissue under confined compression. Methods Experimental stress-relaxation response of 31 cylindrical porcine samples tested under fast and slow confined compression by Vaidya and collaborators were used. An axisymmetric Finite Element model was developed in ABAQUS and, for each sample a one-to-one inverse analysis was performed to calibrate the specimen-specific constitutive parameters, namely, the drained Young's modulus, the void ratio, hydraulic permeability, the Poisson's ratio, the solid grain's and fluid's bulk moduli. Findings The peak stress and consolidation were recovered for most of the samples (N = 25) by the poroelastic model (normalised root-mean-square error ≤0.03 for fast and slow confined compression conditions). Interpretation The strength of the proposed model is its fewer number of variables (N = 6 for the proposed poroelastic model versus N = 18 for the viscohyperelastic model proposed by Vaidya and collaborators). The incorporation of poroelasticity to clinical models of Pessure Ulcer formation could lead to more precise and mechanistic explorations of soft tissue injury risk factors.
