Abstract

We consider growth and mass transfer in a biological tissue that is macroscopically described by a biphasic, multi-constituent material. One phase is fluid, and the other one is solid. We distinguish between the exchange interactions, that occur between the phases, and growth, that occurs in the solid-phase. Our purposes are: (i) to discuss possible evolution laws for both mass transfer and growth, and (ii) to characterize the equilibrium of the system.
