The role of contractile unit reorganization in force generation in airway smooth muscle

Airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells undergo remodelling and reside in a tissue structure that is subject to heterogenous stress distributions that change dynamically during the breathing cycle. In this paper, we develop a structural model of an ASM cell that consists of contractile units (actin and myo...
