An eulerian formulation of soft tissue growth
Abstract eng: An Eulerian formulation of soft tissue growth has been developed. In contrast with standard Lagrangian formulations of growth that use multiplicative forms connecting total, elastic and growth deformation tensors, this Eulerian formulation uses evolution equations for elastic deformation measures. These evolution equations model homeostasis as an inelastic process causing the elastic deformation measures to approach their homeostatic values. An advantage of the Eulerian approach is that it is not influenced by unphysical arbitrariness of specifications of reference and intermediate configurations.
