Multiscale Modeling of Amphibian Neurulation
This thesis presents a whole-embryo finite element model of neurulation -- the first of its kind. An advanced, multiscale finite element approach is used to capture the mechanical interactions that occur across cellular, tissue and whole-embryo scales. Cell-based simulations are used to construct a...
