FEBio models used in the reactive DNA hydrogels paper by Zimmerman et al. (2024) published in the Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids. Verification problems recover simpler formulations of neutral non-reactive gels. Validation problems model dynamic polymerization of DNA hydrogels through crosslink growth

Gaussian polyelectrolyte hydrogel in a monovalent salt.
Verification - Chester and Anand/Verify_Chester_Gaussian.feb
Neutral non-reactive Gaussian hydrogel with no solutes. Recovers results from Chester and Anand (2010)'s earlier work. Used for results in Section 5.2 in the paper.
Verification - Chester and Anand/Verify_Chester_NonGaussian_no_SBM.feb
Neutral non-reactive non-Gaussian hydrogel with no solutes. Recovers results from Chester and Anand (2010)'s earlier work. Used for results in Section 5.2 in the paper. This model only uses the solid material to define the gel.
Verification - Chester and Anand/Verify_Chester_NonGaussian_only_SBM.feb
Neutral non-reactive non-Gaussian hydrogel with no solutes. Recovers results from Chester and Anand (2010)'s earlier work. Used for results in Section 5.2 in the paper. This model only uses a solid-bound molecule to define the gel and defines zero base material volume.
