From: Development of a 3D finite element model of lens microcirculation
Hydrostatic pressure fields calculated by the mouse lens model. 3D quarter section views of the standing hydrostatic pressure fields calculated for the intracellular (A) and extracellular (B) spaces. The inwardly gradient of extracellular pressure field indicated the direction of the fluid flow towards the centre of the lens model. On the other hand, the gradient of the estimated intracellular pressure field indicates outward fluid flow in this compartment of the lens. The values on the colour-bars are in kPa units.
