The impact of contact inhibition on collective cell migration and proliferation
Harish P. Jain, Dennis Wenzel, Axel Voigt
Contact inhibition limits migration and proliferation of cells in cell colonies. We consider a multiphase field model to investigate the growth dynamics of a cell colony, composed…
Topological and geometrical quantities in active cellular structures
Dennis Wenzel, Simon Praetorius, Axel Voigt
Topological and geometrical properties and the associated topological defects find a rapidly growing interest in studying the interplay between mechanics and the collective behavio…
A mesoscopic field theoretical approach for active systems
Francesco Alaimo, Simon Praetorius, Axel Voigt
We introduce a mesocopic modeling approach for active systems. The continuum model allows to consider microscopic details as well as emerging macroscopic behavior and can be consid…
Relaxation of curvature induced elastic stress by the Asaro-Tiller-Grinfeld instability
C. Köhler, R. Backofen, A. Voigt
A two-dimensional crystal on the surface of a sphere experiences elastic stress due to the incompatibility of the crystal axes and the curvature. A common mechanism to relax elasti…
