The mechanical behavior of a mixture composed by an elastic solid and a fluid that exchange mass is investigated. Both the liquid flow and the solid deformation depend on how the solid phase has increased (diminished) its mass, i.e. on the mass conversion between constituents. The model is developed introducing a decomposition of the solid phase deformation gradient. In particular, exploiting the criterion of maximization of the rate of entropy production, we determine an explicit evolution equation for the so-called growth tensor which involves directly the solid stress tensor. An example of a possible choice of the constitutive functions is also presented.

Cancer is a disease of dysregulated mechanics which alters cell behaviour, compromises tissue structure, and promotes tumour growth and metastasis. In the context of tumour progression, the most widely studied of biomechanical markers is matrix stiffness as tumour tissue is typically stiffer than healthy tissue. However, solid stress has recently been identified as another marker of tumour growth, with findings strongly suggesting that its role in cancer is distinct from that of stiffness. Owing to the relative infancy of the field which draws from diverse disciplines, a comprehensive knowledge of the relationships between solid stress, tumorigenesis, and metastasis is likely to provide new and valuable insights. In this review, we discuss the micro- and macro-scale biomechanical interactions that give rise to solid stresses, and also examine the techniques developed to quantify solid stress within the tumour environment. Moreover, by reviewing the effects of solid stress on tissues, cancer and stromal cells, and signalling pathways, we also detail its mode of action at each level of the cancer cascade.
