A tri-phasic continuum model for the numerical analysis of biological tissue proliferation using the Theory of Porous Media: Application to cardiac remodelling in rheumatic heart disease

This research is part of an on-going project aimed at describing the mechanotransduction of rheumatic heart disease (RHD), in order to study long-term effects of new therapeutic concepts to treat inflammatory heart diseases and ultimately, estimate their effectiveness to prevent heart failure. RHD i...
