Actin turnover plays a fundamental role in cell motility, cancer or embryogenesis. The actin flow acts as an engine for the affective motion of motile cells by means of protrusive and retractile mechanisms conditioned also by myosin motors. Different mathematical and numerical models have appeared in literature to model the actin flow. In this work we propose to use one of analytical models in literature to include it in a FE coupling procedure for time-dependent diffusion-convection-reaction equations governing the actin flow.
