General solutions of poroelastic equations with viscous stress

This work adopts a two-phase model that extends Biot theory by including the fluid viscous stresses in the fluid’s momentum equation and uses generalized linear viscoelastic (VE) constitutive equations to describe the permeating fluid and the network stresses and assumes a constant friction coefficient that couples the fluid and network displacement fields.

Numerical Simulation of Real-Time Deformability Cytometry To Extract Cell Mechanical Properties.

A full numerical model for single cells in a flow channel to quantitatively relate cell deformation to mechanical parameters is proposed and a new measure for Cell Stiffness is introduced that is capable to distinguish between deformation effects stemming from cell cortex and cell bulk elasticity.

Atomic force microscopy-based mechanobiology

The potential of combining AFM with complementary techniques, including optical microscopy and spectroscopy of mechanosensitive fluorescent constructs, super-resolution microscopy, the patch clamp technique and the use of microstructured and fluidic devices to characterize the 3D distribution of mechanical responses within biological systems are outlined.

A unified rheological model for cells and cellularised materials

A novel model combining conventional viscoelastic elements with fractional calculus that successfully captures the macroscopic relaxation response of epithelial monolayers is presented, providing a novel and robust mathematical approach for diagnostic methods based on mechanical traits as well as more accurate computational models of tissues mechanics.
