Detailed Description

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM = ELEMENT_DIM>
class GeneralisedLinearSpringForce< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >

A force law employed by Meineke et al (2001) in their off-lattice model of the intestinal crypt (doi:10.1046/j.0960-7722.2001.00216.x).

Each pair of neighbouring nodes are assumed to be connected by a linear spring. The force of node $i$ is given by

\[ \mathbf{F}_{i}(t) = \sum_{j} \mu_{i,j} ( || \mathbf{r}_{i,j} || - s_{i,j}(t) ) \hat{\mathbf{r}}_{i,j}. \]

Here $\mu_{i,j}$ is the spring constant for the spring between nodes $i$ and $j$, $s_{i,j}(t)$ is its natural length at time $t$, $\mathbf{r}_{i,j}$ is their relative displacement and a hat ( $\hat{}$) denotes a unit vector.

Length is scaled by natural length. Time is in hours.

Member Data Documentation

◆ mMeinekeDivisionRestingSpringLength

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM = ELEMENT_DIM>
double GeneralisedLinearSpringForce< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::mMeinekeDivisionRestingSpringLength
protected

Initial resting spring length after cell division. Has units of cell size at equilibrium rest length

The value of this parameter should be larger than mDivisionSeparation, because of pressure from neighbouring springs.

◆ mMeinekeSpringGrowthDuration

double GeneralisedLinearSpringForce< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::mMeinekeSpringGrowthDuration
protected

The time it takes for the springs rest length to increase from mMeinekeDivisionRestingSpringLength to its natural length.

The value of this parameter is usually the same as the M Phase of the cell cycle and defaults to 1.
