The continuum mechanical treatment of biological growth and remodeling has attracted considerable attention over the past fifteen years. Many aspects of these problems are now well-understood, yet there remain areas in need of significant development from the standpoint of experiments, theory, and computation. In this perspective paper we review the state of the field and highlight open questions, challenges, and avenues for further development.
在过去十五年中,生物生长与重塑的连续介质力学处理方法已引起了相当大的关注。现在,这些问题的许多方面已得到很好的理解,但从实验、理论和计算的角度来看,仍有一些领域需要重大发展。在这篇观点论文中,我们回顾了该领域的现状,并突出了未解决的问题、挑战以及进一步发展的途径。
