Stress-sensitive tissue regeneration in viscoelastic biomaterials subjected to modulated tensile strain

“…Fractional (non-integer order) calculus has been applied to develop models that consider these biological events [1]. The mechano-biology of tendons requires a complete understanding of its liquid constituents in the presence of stress, because tendon viscoelasticity depends on (i) water content and (ii) physico-chemical influence on anisotropic intra-tendon diffusion [2]. In some cases, wave propagation described by the reaction-diffusion equation initiates deformation in cardiac tissue via a process known as mechano-electrical feedback [3].…”
