Morpho-elastodynamics: the long-time dynamics of elastic growth.
As elastic tissues grow and remodel, they generate stresses that influence their mechanical states which influence the way growth proceeds. This complex feedback leads to a dynamic evolution of growth and stresses which can be modelled within the theory of exact nonlinear elasticity. Here, we first...

| Тойм: | As elastic tissues grow and remodel, they generate stresses that influence their mechanical states which influence the way growth proceeds. This complex feedback leads to a dynamic evolution of growth and stresses which can be modelled within the theory of exact nonlinear elasticity. Here, we first review the different theoretical results considering growth laws and then, we present a new approach to look at morphoelasticity as a continuous dynamical process. These evolution laws lead to new dynamical systems that can be studied by the classical methods of dynamical systems theory. |
