In the last years many efforts have been devoted to understand the stressmodulated growth of soft tissues. Recent theoretical achievements suggest that a component of the stress-growth coupling is tissue-independent and reads as an Eshelby-like tensor. In this paper we investigate the mathematical properties and the qualitative behavior predicted by equations that specialize that model under few simple assumptions. Equations strictly deduced from a dissipation principle are compared with heuristic ones that fit well the experimental data. Numerical simulations of the growth of a symmetric annulus are discussed.
