Popis: A three dimensional anisotropic model for tendon behavior was used to fit experimental stress-strain data. This model was motivated by tendon microstructure and included the contributions of fibers, matrix, and fiber-matrix interactions. Our results suggest that fiber-matrix interactions contribute to tendon mechanical behavior.Copyright © 2003 by ASME
