This review article is concerned with the mathematical modelling of the mechanical
properties of the soft biological tissues that constitute the walls of arteries. Many important …

The study of corneal biomechanics is motivated by the tight relationship between
biomechanical properties and visual function within the ocular system. For instance …

This monograph presents a general mathematical theory for biological growth. It provides
both a conceptual and a technical foundation for the understanding and analysis of …

Mathematical modeling of the human heart and its function can expand our understanding of
various cardiac diseases, which remain the most common cause of death in the developed …

New experimental results on collagen fibre dispersion in human arterial layers have shown
that the dispersion in the tangential plane is more significant than that out of plane. A …

Purpose.: The mechanical properties of corneal tissue are linked to prevalent ocular
diseases and therapeutic procedures. Brillouin microscopy is a novel optical technology that …

Purpose In recent years, the interest in corneal biomechanics has strongly increased. The
material properties of the cornea determine its shape and therefore play an important role in …

Collagen fibres within fibrous soft biological tissues such as artery walls, cartilage,
myocardiums, corneas and heart valves are responsible for their anisotropic mechanical …

Soft biological tissues are complex materials with a large structural variety, with differences
in behavior, but with some common characteristics. Skin is an archetypal soft tissue which …

Purpose To theoretically compare the corneal stress distribution of laser in situ
keratomileusis (LASIK) with the stress distribution of small-incision lenticule extraction …
