Figure Legend:
Rounding of a single cell. (a) Initial configuration taken from a Voronoi tessellation. (b) Final, rounded state of the cell. (c) Configuration produced when that shown in (b) is stretched along the horizontal axis of the figure to produce a prolate spheroid having κ=2. (d) Configuration produced when that shown in (b) is compressed along the horizontal axis to form an oblate spheroid having κ=2.
