A mathematical model for bone tissue regeneration inside a specific type of scaffold.

abstract：:The basic aim of the present contribution is the qualitative simulation of healing phenomena typically encountered in hard and soft tissue mechanics. The mechanical framework is provided by the theory of open system thermodynamics, which will be formulated in the spatial as well as in the material motion context. Whil...
