Journal ArticleDOI
Effective governing equations for poroelastic growing media
TL;DR: In this article, a model for the macroscopic behavior of a porous, linear elastic solid, saturated with a slowly flowing incompressible, viscous fluid, with surface accretion of the solid phase was developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiscale homogenization for fluid and drug transport in vascularized malignant tissues
TL;DR: A system of differential equations for coupled fluid and drug transport in vascularized (malignant) tissues is derived by a multiscale expansion to provide a theoretical setting for a better understanding of the design of effective anti-cancer therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three scales asymptotic homogenization and its application to layered hierarchical hard tissues
Ariel Ramírez-Torres,Raimondo Penta,Reinaldo Rodríguez-Ramos,Jose Merodio,Federico J. Sabina,Julián Bravo-Castillero,Raúl Guinovart-Díaz,Luigi Preziosi,Alfio Grillo +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a multiple scales asymptotic homogenization approach is proposed to study the effective properties of hierarchical composites with periodic structure at different length scales, exemplified by solving a linear elastic problem for a composite material with layered hierarchical structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of the microvascular tortuosity in tumor transport phenomena
TL;DR: The quantitative analysis supports the argument that geometric regularization of the capillary network improves blood transport and drug delivery in the tumor mass by increasing the geometrical complexity of the microvasculature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The asymptotic homogenization elasticity tensor properties for composites with material discontinuities
Raimondo Penta,Alf Gerisch +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the gradient of the cell problem solution is minor symmetric and that its cell average is zero for perfect interfaces only (i.e., when the elastic displacement is continuous across the composite's interface) and can be used to assess the accuracy of computed numerical solutions.
