The statistical physics of active matter: From self-catalytic colloids to living cells (2017, methodology): “Recent work [85, 86] has instead examined the materials properties of tissues by using active versions of a well established model known as the Vertex Model (VM) that captures the interplay of cortical tension and cell-cell adhesion in controlling cellular arrangements in dense tissues [87, 88, 89, ”

Motility-driven glass and jamming transitions in biological tissues (2015, background): “Recently, Bi and coworkers [7] have demonstrated that the well-studied vertex model for 2-D confluent tissues [8, 12, 22, 31, 33, 49] exhibits a rigidity transition in the limit of zero cell motility.”
