[Abstract] Geomaterials and biological tissues have numerous properties in common. Both are naturally evolving porous media, the fluid of both is water, both exhibit large specimen-to-specimen variability of material properties, both are anisotropic, both have microstructure evolving from an intricate communication between environmental conditions and internal physics, both have ionisation along fluid-solid interfaces, and both have numerous ionic species dissolved in the fluid. It is no wonder that myriads of applications on geomechanical models have been found in biology. Many applications include herniation of the intervertebral disc [1,2], tissue differentiation driven by ion-exchange [3-4], swelling at extremely large deformation [5], osteoporosis, osteoarthritis [6], coronary vascular disease as a multiporosity problem [7], mechanotransduction in gel-like tissues [8-9], diffusiophoresis-driven propulsion [10-11]. These applications have led to novel numerical techniques, novel design of prostheses and better understanding of tissue engineering constructs [9].
