A finite element method for growth in biological development

We describe finite element simulations of limb growth based on Stokes flow models witha nonzero divergence representing growth due to nutrients in the early stages of limb bud development.We introduce a ''tissue pressure'' whose spatial derivatives yield the growth velocity in th...
