Specimens of Tyrannosaurus and colleagues announced the recovery of soft tissue from the marrow cavity of a fossilized leg bone (a 1.15 m long femur), from a 68-million-year-old "Tyrannosaurus". The bone had been intentionally, though reluctantly, broken for shipping and then not preserved in the normal manner, specifically because Schweitzer was hoping to test it for soft tissue. Designated MOR 1125 (and known informally as B-rex), the dinosaur had been excavated from the Hell Creek Formation. Flexible, bifurcating blood vessels and fibrous but elastic bone matrix tissue were recognized. In addition, microstructures resembling blood cells were found inside the matrix and vessels. The
Soft tissue as hyperelastic with different material constants at loading and unloading. By this method the elasticity theory is used to model an inelastic material. Fung has called this model as pseudoelastic to point out that the material is not truly elastic. In physiological state soft tissues usually present residual stress that may be released when the tissue is excised. Physiologists and histologists must be aware of this fact to avoid mistakes when analyzing excised tissues. This retraction usually causes a visual artifact. Fung developed a constitutive equation for preconditioned soft tissues which is with quadratic forms of Green-Lagrange strains formula_4 and
