Summary

  • We model the contractive effects of fibroblasts on dermal tissue using point sources in an elastic medium.
  • The equations are analyzed using weighted Sobolev spaces and two finite element methods are proposed.

Corrigendum

It has been pointed out in this article by Allendes et al. that there is a mistake in the proofs of Lemma 3.2 and Theorems 3.3 & 3.4. The interested reader is referred to that paper for a rectification of the error.
