Self-healing is a self-adapting property that helps systems return to a normal state after a fault or vulnerability exploit has been detected. The problem is intuitively appealing as a way to automate the different type of maintenance processes (corrective, adaptive and perfective) a...

When they are damaged or injured, soft biological tissues able to self-repair and heal. Mechanics is critical during the healing process, as extracellular matrix (ECM) tends be replaced with a new undamaged ECM supporting homeostatic stresses. Computational modeling has been commonly used simulate process. However, there pressing need have unified thermodynamics theory for healing. From viewpoi...
