The paper summarizes recent efforts in the homogenization based multiscale modelling of biological tissues in the context of the fluid-structure interaction at the microscopic level. Two models are presented: a model of compact bone poroelasticity and a model of parallel flows in perfused deforming tissue. The homogenization approach employed to develop these models is based on the Biot model of fluid saturated porous media, assumptions of periodic geometry of the pores and uses scale dependent permeability in the double-porous compartments.
