Microscale modeling of layered fibrous networks with applications to biomaterials for tissue engineering

Many important biomaterials are composed of multiple layers of networked fibers. A prime example is in the field of tissue engineering, in which damaged or diseased native tissues are replaced by artificial tissues that are grown on fibrous polymer networks. For load bearing tissues, it is critica...
