Finite element modelling of the sacral soft tissues under compressive loading in the context of pressure ulcer prevention: importance of the personalization of the material parameters
These results demonstrate that incorporating personalized tissue properties substantially improves model fidelity, highlighting the potential of combined imaging, mechanical testing, and FE modelling for individualized risk assessment of deep tissue injury.
