Native and engineered fi ber-reinforced tissues are composites comprised of sti ff collagen fi bers embedded within an extra fi brillar matrix that is capable of swelling by absorbing water molecules. Tissue swelling is important for understanding stress distributions between collagen fi bers and extra fi brillar matrix, as well as for understanding mechanisms of tissue failure. The swelling behavior of fi ber-reinforced tissues in the musculoskeletal system has been largely attributed to the glycosaminoglycan content. Recent work demonstrated anisotropy in the swelling response of the annulus fi brosus in the intervertebral disc. It is well known that collagen fi ber orientation a ff ects elastic behavior, but the e ff ect of collagen fi ber network on tissue swelling behavior is not well understood. In this study, we developed three series of models to evaluate the e ff ect of collagen fi ber orientation, fi ber network architecture ( i.e. , single or multi- fi ber families within a layer), and fi ber sti ff ness on bulk tissue swelling, which was simulated by describing the extra fi brillar matrix as a triphasic material, as proposed by Lai et al. Model results were within one standard deviation of reported mean values for changes in tissue volume, width, and thickness under free swelling conditions. The predicted swelling response of single- fi ber family structures was highly dependent on fi ber orientation and the number of lamellae in the bulk tissue. Moreover, matrix swelling resulted in tissue to twist, which reduced fi ber deformations, demonstrating a balance between fi ber deformation and matrix swelling. Large changes in fi ber sti ff ness (20× increase) had a relatively small e ff ect on tissue swelling (~ 2% decrease in swelling). In conclusion, fi ber angle, fi ber architecture (de fi ned as single- versus multiple fi ber families in a layer), and the number of layers in a single fi ber family structure directly a ff ected tissue swelling behavior, including fi ber stretch, fi ber reorientation, and tissue deformation. These fi ndings support the need to develop computational models that closely mimic the native architecture in order to un- derstand mechanisms of stress distributions and tissue failure.
