Comparison of direct and inverse methods for 2.5D traction force microscopy
Essential cellular processes such as cell adhesion, migration and division strongly depend on mechanical forces. The standard method to measure cell forces is traction force microscopy (TFM) on soft elastic substrates with embedded marker beads. While in

Investigation of the stress-strain state of the scraper traction frame [PDF]
The paper deals with the loading of the scraper traction frame in the traction and transport modes. When digging the soil, the case of transferring the traction force of the tractor directly to the ladle was examined, bypassing the traction frame.

Inference of internal stress in a cell monolayer [PDF]
We combine traction force data with Bayesian inversion to obtain an absolute estimate of the internal stress field of a cell monolayer. The method, Bayesian inversion stress microscopy (BISM), is validated using numerical simulations performed in a wide ...

Three-Dimensional Quantification of Cellular Traction Forces and Mechanosensing of Thin Substrata by Fourier Traction Force Microscopy [PDF]
We introduce a novel three-dimensional (3D) traction force microscopy (TFM) method motivated by the recent discovery that cells adhering on plane surfaces exert both in-plane and out-of-plane traction stresses.

High-Resolution Traction Force Microscopy [PDF]
Cellular forces generated by the actomyosin cytoskeleton and transmitted to the extracellular matrix (ECM) through discrete, integrin-based protein assemblies, that is, focal adhesions, are critical to developmental morphogenesis and tissue homeostasis, as well as disease progression in cancer.

Confocal reference free traction force microscopy [PDF]
AbstractThe mechanical wiring between cells and their surroundings is fundamental to the regulation of complex biological processes during tissue development, repair or pathology. Traction force microscopy (TFM) enables determination of the actuating forces.

A fuzzy model for an increase in locomotive traction force
This paper deals with the process of traction force realization described by a suitable mechanical model and is pointed to the adhesion phenomenon as a physical one, i.e. is a suitable factor that the value of traction force depends on. The model for the
