Journal ArticleDOI
On the Modeling of the Viscoelastic Response of Embryonic Tissues
TL;DR: A solid model is proposed that reflects the fact that such embryonic tissues in the bulk behave like solids rather than as fluids, and stems from a robust thermodynamic framework and is shown to fit the experimental data exceptionally well.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhomogeneous Non-Unidirectional Deformations of a Wedge of a Non-Linearly Elastic Material
Journal ArticleDOI
Solutions of some boundary value problems for a new class of elastic bodies. Comparison with predictions of the classical theory of linearized elasticity: Part II. A problem with spherical symmetry
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the response of a spherical annular region of the same strain limiting elastic body considered in Part I, wherein the linearized strain is a nonlinear function of the stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the flow of fluids through inhomogeneous porous media due to high pressure gradients
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the flow through a rectangular slab for two different permeability distributions, considering both the generalized Darcy and Brinkman models, and observe that the solutions using the Darcy model could be drastically different or practically identical depending on the inhomogeneity, that is, the permeability.
Book ChapterDOI
A Comparison of the Response of Isotropic Inhomogeneous Elastic Cylindrical and Spherical Shells and Their Homogenized Counterparts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the status of such approximations when one is concerned with bodies whose response is nonlinear and find that significant departures in response can occur between that of a "mildly" inhomogeneous body and its homogeneous approximation, both quantitatively and qualitatively.
