Add subcellular element model #110
Comments
A brief overview of the code structure is provided in Section 6.2.3 of Dan Harvey's DPhil thesis. It looks like Dan's approach is to create a class I guess this was done to limit the amount of new coding required, and because for the use cases considered by Dan Harvey and others, cell behaviours like division weren't necessary. I think a more general approach, allowing for cell division and cell death, will require a new cell population that maintains a correspondence between each cell and multiple nodes (as is the case already in With this new approach, I can see a few minor edits needed to the existing mechanics code, e.g.
Then more effort would be required to implement things like cells dividing, growing/shrinking, dying, and interacting with any PDE state variables. |

As part of the BBR grant, we should add the subcellular element model to the core chaste library.
