On a poroviscoelastic model for cell crawling

In this paper a minimal, one–dimensional, two–phase, viscoelastic, reac- tive, flow model for a crawling cell is presented. Two-phase models are used with a variety of constitutive assumptions in the literature to model cell motility. We use an upper–convected Maxwell model and demonstrate that even...
