Mechanical Models in Single-Cell Locomotion, Adhesion, and Force Production
<p> Here we present the results of two distinct projects in the field of cellular mechanics. In the first project, we describe a non-monotonicity in the scaling of force production in actomyosin stress fibers. We develop a continuum mechanical model to explain that non-monotonicity and, using...
