Influence of aging on dermal elastin fiber architecture and skin firmness assessed by finite element modeling by Fei Jiang, Takeshi Tohgasaki, Mayuko Kami, Ryota Sanuki, Yuya Nakata, Shinya Kondo, Xian Chen

“…In this study, we developed a novel computational framework integrating realistic 3D elastin fiber geometries–extracted from confocal microscopy images of human abdominal skin samples (Caucasian females, aged 38–78 years)–into a finite element (FE) model of the dermal matrix. The elastin networks were explicitly represented as beam elements within the FE domain. …”
