“…We focus our attention in the numerical approximation of the chemical interaction between species concentrations and the response of the deformable medium where they react. Such a general framework is relevant to a wide range of applications going from molecular to macroscopic biological systems, and including, for instance, chemotaxis [52], organogenesis [41], bone remodelling [50,61], swelling of porous materials [38], cardiac electromechanics [31], tumor growth [10], force generation in skeletal muscle [15], wound healing [8], collagen network generation [34], tissue engineering [40], and many others.…”
