Abstract: This study employs the finite element approach developed in Part I to analyze mechanical experiments on cells. It views cells as axisymmetric membrane structures containing a body of incompressible ...

Abstract: This study presents a computational approach for the deformation analyses of problems in cell and developmental biology. Cells and embryos are viewed mechanically as axisymmetric shell-like bodies ...

Abstract: A detailed three-dimensional finite element model for radial keratotomy has been developed. The model includes the full load-bearing tunic of the eye and employs realistic geometry. Incisions are ...
