From: Bulk elastic properties of chicken embryos during somitogenesis
The y component of the averaged experimental displacement field (points) compared with the calculated displacement from the four-region finite-element model with the same applied force (lines), calculated for a locus of points along the mediolateral x axis (at y = 0). a) Force applied along the embryo's midline. b) Force applied at the midpoint of the area pellucida.
