[The biomechanical model of cytokinesis in animal cells].
As the basis of cell proliferation, cytokinesis involves the division of the cytoplasm and the plasma membrane into two. In this paper a few models on the active deformation mechanism during cytokinesis process are presented. Discussions are made onvarious models, conclusions, differences between the numerical results and the corresponding experimental results.
