      Solid Tumors Are Poroelastic Solids with a Chemo-mechanical Feedback on Growth 

      Ambrosi, D.; Pezzuto, S.; Riccobelli, D.; Stylianopoulos, T.; Ciarletta, P. (2017)
      The experimental evidence that a feedback exists between growth and stress in tumors poses challenging questions. First, the rheological properties (the “constitutive equations”) of aggregates of malignant cells are still ...
