## Abstract A triphasic model (solid, interstices filled with water containing nutrients) is proposed for the phenomenological description of transversely isotropic saturated biological tissues including the phenomena of growth. This is done within the framework of a macroβmechanical description ba
## Abstract Calf pericardium, similar to that used in the manufacturing of prosthetic valve cusps, was fatigue tested. After six batches of 100 cycles of 1 MPa of loading pressure, half of the samples broke. The mean energy dissipated in the first cycle by the surviving samples was 0.16 J, which is
