Interaction forces modeling: (a) Protrusion traction force at the wound edge, pointing toward the wound center; (b) Intercellular interaction at cell–cell junctions was decomposed into normal traction and shear traction; (c) Cell-substrate adhesion at the cell-substrate interface was decomposed into normal traction and shear traction.
