| contents | We derive an asymptotically consistent morphoelastic shell model to describe the finite deformations of biological tissues using the variational asymptotical method. Biological materials may exhibit remarkable compressibility when under large deformations, and we take this factor into account for accurate predictions of their morphoelastic changes. The morphoelastic shell model combines the growth model of Rodriguez et al. and a novel shell model developed by us. We start from the three-dimensional (3D) morphoelastic model and construct the optimal shell energy based on a series expansion around the middle surface. A two-step variational method is applied that retains the leading-order expansion coefficient while eliminating the higher-order ones. The main outcome is a two-dimensional (2D) shell energy depending on the stretching and bending strains of the middle surface. The derived morphoelastic shell model is asymptotically consistent with three-dimensional morphoelasticity and can recover various shell models in literature. Several examples are shown for the verification and illustration. |
