...Stephen M. Klisch; Silvia S. Chen; Robert L. Sah; Anne Hoger In this paper, we present a growth mixture model for cartilage. The main features of this model are illustrated in a simple equilibrium boundary-value problem that is chosen to illustrate how a mechanical theory of cartilage growth may...

... of this boundary value problem can be calculated directly from the solution of the homogeneous steady stress problem 24 . It is supposed that both the stress and damage states are homogeneous and steady at their initial value, (17) T 33 x = − P and all other T ij = 0 ∀ t...
