Data and Software underlying the publication: Static jamming and dynamic shear thinning in modeled epithelial tissue

To study the jamming behaviour and viscoelastic properties of epithelial tissue we conducted simulations and compared the results to experimental findings.The jamming data shows the average contact number, reduced area and final packingfraction per simulation. These can be used to study jamming in terms of the order parameter Z (contact number). For shearing simulations, the stress was measured over time. This way, the stress relaxation after shearing and the steady-state stress for different strain rates can be determined.The data includes processed .csv data files of the simulations, the codebase and 2 videos. The two videos show two continuous shear simulations with and without adherens junctions.

为研究上皮组织的堵塞行为与粘弹性特性，我们开展了模拟实验，并将模拟结果与实验观测结果进行对比。本次堵塞数据集包含各次模拟的平均接触数、约化面积与最终堆积分数，上述数据可用于以序参量Z（接触数）为指标开展堵塞行为研究。针对剪切模拟，我们实时测量了应力随时间的变化，借此可确定剪切后的应力松弛特性，以及不同应变速率下的稳态应力。本数据集包含处理完成的模拟结果.csv文件、完整代码库与两段视频，两段视频分别展示了带有黏着连接与不带黏着连接的连续剪切模拟过程。
