Stress and Growth in the Heart, Lung and Blood Vessels

心脏、肺和血管的动态生长和变化将根据血压和血流的变化进行研究。其目的是了解生长和压力之间的关系，以控制健康问题，并可能开发人造组织的新制造方法。这项研究是基于先前关于组织中残余应力和这些应力产生的机制的结果。这项研究可能会提供关于施加的压力如何决定组织生长速度的重要信息。

The dynamics of growth and change in heart, lung, and blood vessels will be studied in response to variations in blood pressure and flow. The aim is to understand the relationship between growth and stress to control health problems and possibly to develop new manufacturing methods for artificial tissues. The study is based on previous results concerning residual stress in tissues and the mechanisms by which these stresses arise. The research is likely to give fundamentally important information about the way in which imposed stress determines the rate of tissue growth.
