Finite element analysis of biological soft tissue surrounded by a deformable membrane that controls transmembrane flow.

These facts suggest that our new method can be effectively used for the analysis of a large deformation of hydrated porous hyperelastic material surrounded by a deformable membrane that controls transmembrane flow, and further investigations may allow more realistic analyses of the biological soft tissues, such as brain edema, brain trauma, the flow of blood and lymph in capillaries and pitting edema.
