Acknowledgment This master thesis has been carried out at the Institute of Biomechanics at Graz, University of Technology. I would like to express my gratitude to all people who supported me. Special thanks are mainly due to my supervisor Gerhard Sommer, PhD, for his guidance, contribution of knowledge and experience, support and valuable comments and to the head of the Institute of Biomechanics Prof. Gerhard Holzapfel, PhD. I would also like to convey my gratitude to Andreas Schriefl, PhD, for his effort and valuable help during the data analysis, and Heimo Wolinski, PhD, for his expertise concerning microscopy. Moreover, I am thankful to Dipl.-Ing. Clemens Diwoky, who enabled performing the feasibility study using DTMRI. Last but not the least important I owe my thanks to my family and friends who supported and encouraged me throughout
