A model for one-dimensional morphoelasticity and its application to fibroblast-populated collagen lattices

The mechanical behaviour of solid biological tissues has long been described using models based on classical continuum mechanics. However, the classical continuum theories of elasticity and viscoelasticity cannot easily capture the continual remodelling and associated structural changes of biologica...
