| Method | Abstract: "Applying a viscoelastic-solid model for cell mechanics allows [investigators] to represent one-dimensional locomotion with a system of differential equations describing cell deformation and displacement along with adhesion-receptor dynamics. In this paper, [they] solve these equations under the simplifying assumption that receptor dynamics are at a quasi-steady state relative to cell locomotion." |
