A New Method for Measuring Deformation of Folding Surfaces During Morphogenesis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During morphogenesis, epithelia (cell sheets) undergo complex deformations as they stretch, bend, and twist to form the embryo. Often these changes in shape create multivalued surfaces that can ...
On Modeling Morphogenesis of the Looping Heart Following Mechanical Perturbations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Looping is a crucial early phase during heart development, as the initially straight heart tube (HT) deforms into a curved tube to lay out the basic plan of the mature heart. This paper ...
