title = "Finite deformation theory of blood prefused soft tissue",
abstract = "Blood perfused soft tissue is a porous material saturated with fluid, to which regular porous media theories do not apply. The tree-shaped pattern of the geometry of the pores is such that each blood particle is lead from large vessels (arteries) to increasingly small vessels, and then again to larger vessels (veins). In this study we present an extension of Biot's theory of finite deformation of porous solids, which accounts for the hierachical structure of the microcirculatory bed of blood perfused soft tissues. The derivation of the continuum theory is based upon a formal averaging procedure.",
