This study proposed a computational framework to calculate the resultant position- and time-dependent pressure profile on the brain tissue due to tumor growth. A finite element (FE) patch of the brain tissue was constructed and an inverse dynamic FE-optimization algorithm was used to calculate its viscoelastic mechanical properties under compressive uniaxial loading. Two patient-specific post-tumor resection FE models were input to the FE-optimization algorithm to calculate the optimized 3-order position-dependent and normal distribution time-dependent pressure profile parameters. The optimized viscoelastic material properties, the most suitable simulation time, and the optimized 3-order position- and -time-dependent pressure profiles were calculated.
