Analysis of Brain Tissue Poroelastic Properties Using Multiscale Modelling
View through CrossRef
Mathematical models are developed to further understand ischaemic stroke formation and achieve treatment effectiveness. The existing poroelastic model of the brain assumed the brain as a homogenized structure with uniform capillary distribution. This paper describes the use of a multiscale modeling technique known as asymptotic expansion homogenization (AEH) to derive a new poroelastic model of brain tissue. The model consists of a homogenized governing macroscale model with the effective parameters determined from the microscale cell equations. The microscale cell equations are solved on a representative volume element (RVE) comprising brain tissue embedded with a capillary. Here, the effect of capillary tortuosity and radius on the effective parameters, which are the hydraulic conductivity of the capillary and interstitial space (K and G), homogenous Biot's coefficient of the blood and interstitial space (?c? and ?t?), Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio are investigated. From the results, it is found that the percentage difference of K is 97.98% with increasing tortuosity, which suggests that K is significantly influenced by the shape of the capillary. In contrast, the percentage difference of G is only 0.25%, showing that it is unaffected by the shape of the capillary. Meanwhile, ?c? and ?t decrease and increase with increasing tortuosity, respectively. Both E and ? are not significantly affected by tortuosity, as the percentage difference for each is just 0.14% and 0.03%, respectively. In terms of capillary radius, it is found that K increases and G decreases with the increase of radius. Meanwhile, ?c? increases with increasing radius, while ?t? shows the opposite trend. The percentage differences of 18.26% and 14.55% are observed for E? and ?, respectively, implying that both parameters are significantly affected by the capillary radius. In conclusion, including capillaries in the brain model significantly affects the effective parameters. Hence, important properties of the capillary, including shape and size, should be carefully emphasized so that accurate findings can be obtained when solving the poroelastic model of the brain.
