A framework for finite-strain viscoelasticity based on rheological representations
Chongran Zhao, Hongyan Yuan, Ju Liu
This work presents a new constitutive and computational framework based on strain-like internal variables belonging to Sym(3) and two representative rheological configurations. The…
Epithelial-substrate coupling strength regulates the landscape of the traction in cohesive monolayers: a parametric study and a revisit to "size effect"
Tiankai Zhao, Hongyan Yuan
Epithelial cells can assemble into cohesive colonies and collectively interact with substrates by generating extracellular forces through focal adhesions. Recently, a molecularly b…
A structure-preserving integrator for incompressible finite elastodynamics based on a grad-div stabilized mixed formulation with particular emphasis on stretch-based material models
Jiashen Guan, Hongyan Yuan, Ju Liu
We present a structure-preserving scheme based on a recently-proposed mixed formulation for incompressible hyperelasticity formulated in principal stretches. Although there exist H…
The analytical solution to the migration of an epithelial monolayer with a circular spreading front and its implications in the gap closure process
Tiankai Zhao, Hongyan Yuan
The coordinated behaviors of epithelial cells are widely observed in tissue development, such as re-epithelialization, tumor growth, and morphogenesis. In these processes, cells ei…
A full contraction-reaction-diffusion model for pattern formation in geometrically confined microtissues
Tiankai Zhao, Hongyan Yuan
The reaction-diffusion models have been extensively applied to explain the mechanism of pattern formations in early embryogenesis based on geometrically confined microtissues consi…
