Model comparisons for tissue collisions

Model
OS VT VM
Low Repulsion: High interface variability after 40 h (OS), possible mixing of populations after collision and tissue tears Unbounded: High interface variability after 40 h (VT), interface present for all times, tissues grow towards boundaries Smooth: Low interface variability after 40 h (VM), although a small number of simulations have high interface variability
Boundary resolution Default Short-range: Moderate interface variability after 40 h (OS) Bounded: Moderate interface variability after 40 h (VT), quick closure time (VT) Default: Low interface variability after 40 h (VM), quickest collision time (VM)
High Long-range: Low interface variability after 40 h (OS), slowest collision time (OS) Ghost nodes: High interface variability after 40 h (VT), cells move far away from reflective boundaries prior to collision Curved: Low interface variability after 40 h (VM), slowest collision time (VM)
