... stress analysis of living tissues. RS is the internal stress which remains in an organ when it is unloaded. Associated with it is a residual strain. Hence if RS is nonzero, then the unloaded organ is not stress-free. In the stress-free configuration, the RS vanishes. Although RS exists in all soft...
