Anisotropic stiffness and tensional homeostasis induce a natural anisotropy of volumetric growth and remodeling in soft biological tissues
Growth in soft biological tissues in general results in anisotropic changes of the tissue
geometry. It remains a key challenge in biomechanics to understand, quantify, and predict …
