Detailed Description

template<unsigned DIM>
class WelikyOsterForce< DIM >

A force class for use in vertex-based simulations, based on a mechanical model proposed by M. Weliky and G. Oster ("The mechanical basis of cell rearrangement. I. Epithelial morphogenesis during Fundulus epiboly", Development 109:373-386).

The default values for the two model parameter member variables are our own best estimates, since they are not given in the Weliky & Oster paper.
