Figure 6

Mechanical model on its own. A time-sequence showing the initial configuration of the model cell, and its evolving shape over time. Simulation was carried out using an elastic modulus T0 = 0.1pN/μm, protrusion force H = 12pN/μm, and viscosity μ = 0.01g/cm·s. By time t = 360s, the cell is in steady-state motion at speed v = 12μm/s with the shape shown
