This volume covers aspects of multiscale modeling of the mechanics and mechanobiology of soft biological tissues. The individual contributions focus on the constitutive modeling from the micro to the macro level in addition to computational modeling and simulation.
It consists of peer-reviewed papers written by leading international authorities and will serve as a major state-of-the-art source of reference for the next few years. It includes both review articles and original articles.
Previously published in the Journal of Elasticity, Volume 129, Issue 1-2, December 2017.
