Numerical Modelling of Multicellular Spheroid Compression: Viscoelastic Fluid vs. Viscoelastic Solid

Parallel-plate compression of multicellular spheroids (MCSs) is a promising and popular technique to quantify the viscoelastic properties of living tissues. This work presents two different approaches to the simulation of the MCS compression based on viscoelastic solid and viscoelastic fluid models....

description Parallel-plate compression of multicellular spheroids (MCSs) is a promising and popular technique to quantify the viscoelastic properties of living tissues. This work presents two different approaches to the simulation of the MCS compression based on viscoelastic solid and viscoelastic fluid models. The first one is the standard linear solid model implemented in ABAQUS/CAE. The second one is the new model for 3D viscoelastic free surface fluid flow, which combines the Oldroyd-B incompressible fluid model and the incompressible neo-Hookean solid model via incorporation of an additional elastic tensor and a dynamic equation for it. The simulation results indicate that either approach can be applied to model the MCS compression with reasonable accuracy. Future application of the viscoelastic free surface fluid model is the MCSs fusion highly-demanded in bioprinting.
