👉 The Fairfield fluid, also known as the Fairfield viscoelastic model, is a mathematical representation of the complex behavior of biological tissues, particularly soft tissues like skin and cartilage. It extends beyond the simpler linear elastic models by incorporating both viscous and elastic characteristics, providing a more accurate description of how these tissues deform under stress. The model accounts for the time-dependent and rate-dependent responses of tissues, making it particularly useful in biomechanics for simulating the mechanical behavior of soft biological materials under various loading conditions. This makes it a valuable tool in fields such as medical device design, surgical planning, and the study of tissue mechanics.
