Uniaxial poroelastic tendon model with crimped fibre recruitment
Zoe C. Godard, Sarah L. Waters, Derek E. Moulton
Fibre recruitment plays an important role in tendon and other biological soft tissue mechanics. Due to their large water content, a popular modelling approach for tendons is poroel…

Uncovering flow and deformation regimes in the coupled fluid-solid vestibular system
Javier Chico-Vázquez, Derek E. Moulton, Dominic Vella
In this paper, we showcase how flow obstruction by a deformable object can lead to symmetry breaking in curved domains subject to angular acceleration. Our analysis is motivated by…

Cyclic loading of a heterogeneous non-linear poroelastic material
Zoe C. Godard, Derek E. Moulton, Sarah L. Waters
Cyclic loading is a common feature in poroelastic systems, the material response depending non-trivially on the exact form of boundary conditions, pore structure, and mechanical pr…
