Morphological instabilities and surface wrinkling of soft materials such as gels and biological
tissues are of growing interest to a number of academic disciplines including soft …

Neurodevelopment is a complex, dynamic process that involves a precisely orchestrated
sequence of genetic, environmental, biochemical, and physical events. Developmental …

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 …

One of the most remarkable differences between classical engineering materials and living
matter is the ability of the latter to grow and remodel in response to diverse stimuli. The …

The surface wrinkling of biological tissues is ubiquitous in nature. Accumulating evidence
suggests that the mechanical force plays a significant role in shaping the biological …

A variety of fascinating morphological patterns arise on surfaces of growing, developing or
aging tissues, organs and microorganism colonies. These patterns can be classified into …

Convolutions are a classical hallmark of most mammalian brains. Brain surface morphology
is often associated with intelligence and closely correlated with neurological dysfunction …

Wrinkling modes are determined for a two-layer system comprised of a neo-Hookean film
bonded to an infinitely deep neo-Hookean substrate with the entire bilayer undergoing …

The objective of this paper is to provide a review on some aspects of the mathematical and
computational modelling of skin biophysics, with special focus on constitutive theories based …

The surface buckling on elastic bilayer towards a higher tunable morphological transition
has attracted considerable interests. While there are many studies on the 2-dimensional …
