Understanding strain localization and fault slip in earthquake systems requires insight into the coupled processes of fluid flow and deformation in porous media. In this talk. Dr. Luca Dal Zilio (NTU) explores recent advances in modeling poromechanical mechanisms that govern these phenomena.
This talk introduces a typical biomechanical workflow for the mechanical characterization and modeling of soft biological tissues. An overview of ongoing work in skin biomechanics will set the
stage for a focused discussion on the role of heterogeneity in the aorta.
