Stress tensor field and mesoscopic stresses in the vertex model for tissues
Paulo C. Godolphim, Leonardo G. Brunnet, Rodrigo Soto
Mechanical stresses are fundamental regulators in biological tissues, where the vertex model (VM) is pivotal for theoretical and force-inference studies. Yet, no uniform expression…

Parameter degeneracy in the vertex model for tissues
Paulo C. Godolphim, Leonardo G. Brunnet, Rodrigo Soto
The vertex model with homogeneous cell properties is known to exhibit a parameter degeneracy in which the system's dynamics is independent of the target area. Here, we show, for th…
