“…Examples include the interaction between soft permeable tissue and blood flow, or the study of the spatial growth of biofilm in fluids. When the interaction with a free fluid is considered, the mechanics of the fluid and poroelastic domains are coupled through balance of forces and continuity conditions that adopt diverse forms depending on the expected behaviour in the specific application (see, e.g., [23,46,47,48] and the references therein). The particular problem we consider in this paper as motivation for the design of the finite element formulation is the interfacial flow of aqueous humour between the anterior chamber and the trabecular meshwork (which is a deformable porous structure) in the eye, and how such phenomenon relates to early stages of glaucoma.…”
