The Mechanical Core of Collective Vesicle and Tissue Dynamics (A Methodological Reduction Neglecting Biochemical Regulation)
Abstract
In this work we intentionally neglect biochemical regulatory mechanisms in order to isolate the mechanical–osmotic core of collective membrane-based systems. The objective is not to deny the importance of biochemical processes in living tissues, but to perform a methodological reduction that allows the physical substrate of such systems to be analyzed independently. We examine the progression from an individual vesicle to a collective vesicle field and finally to a tissue-level abstraction, focusing exclusively on mechanical and osmotic interactions.
