Abstract
Inelastic surface growth associated with continuous creation of incompatibility on the boundary of an evolving body is behind a variety of natural and technological processes, including embryonic development and 3D printing. In this paper we extend the recently proposed stress-space-centered theory of surface growth (PRL 119, 048001, 2017) by shifting the focus towards growth induced strains. To illustrate the new development we present several analytically tractable examples.
