Local irregularity effects on quantifying mechanical response of adherent cells to fluid flow stimuli
The local irregularity at cellular level around adherent cells was examined using the finite element method by simulating a laboratory rotational flow apparatus. An axisymmetric flow was assumed for the fluid flow and the Navier–Stokes equation in cylindrical coordinate was used to study the fluid b...
