This is an implementation of a model for the distribution of cell volumes (\(um^3\)) that constitutes Equation 7 in the paper listed in the references.
volEq7(A = 1, r = 1, sigma_r = 1, t = 29, sigma_t = .3*t, V = 1)
a numeric value that represents the starting value for a linear scaling parameter associated with the volume distribution curve
a numeric value that represents the starting value for the rate of cell growth parameter (\(h\))
a numeric value that represents the starting value for
the variability in the rate of cell growth parameter r
(\(um^3/h\))
a numeric value representing the average cell cycle time (\(h\))
a numeric value representing the variability in the
average cell cycle time t
(\(h\))
a numeric value representing the volume (\(um^3\)) at which the model is to be evaluated
A numeric value representing the frequency of cells expected having
volume V
(\(um^3\)).
