Mechanical characterization of PVA hydrogels' rate-dependent response using multi-axial loading.
The time-dependent properties of rubber-like synthesized and biological materials are crucial for their applications. Currently, this behavior is mainly measured using axial tensile test, compression test, or indentation. Limited studies performed on using multi-axial loading measurements of time-de...
