Nonlinear Biomechanical Characteristics of the Schneiderian Membrane: Experimental Study and Numerical Modeling
Objective. The aim of this study is to quantify the nonlinear mechanical behavior of the Schneiderian membrane. Methods. Thirty cadaveric maxillary sinus membrane specimens were divided into the elongation testing group and the perforation testing group. Mechanical experimental measurements were tak...
