Pulsatory patterns in active viscoelastic fluids with distinct relaxation time scales

Pulsatory patterns in active viscoelastic fluids with distinct relaxation time scales

Developing tissues need to pattern themselves in space and time. A prevalent mechanism to achieve this are pulsatile active stresses generated by the actin cytoskeleton. Active gel theory is a powerful tool to model the dynamics of cytoskeletal pattern formation. In theoretical models, the influence...
