Soft tissues exhibit a nonlinear, essentially incompressible (visco-) elastic response; a key issue is the active nature of muscle fibres, in other words their ability to contract and relax in response to biochemical signals. Here we present a continuum model able to describe an active elastic medium.

Abstract
Soft tissues exhibit a nonlinear, essentially incompressible (visco-) elastic response; a key issue is the active nature of muscle fibres, in other words their ability to contract and relax in response to biochemical signals. Here we present a continuum model able to describe an active elastic medium.File in questo prodotto:
