Phase-field collagen fibrils: Coupling chirality and density modulations
Samuel Cameron, Laurent Kreplak, Andrew D. Rutenberg
To describe the interaction between longitudinal density modulations along collagen fibrils (the D-band) with the radial twist-field of molecular orientation (double-twist), we cou…

Polymorphism of stable collagen fibrils
Samuel Cameron, Laurent Kreplak, Andrew D. Rutenberg
Collagen fibrils are versatile self-assembled structures that provide mechanical integrity within mammalian tissues. The radius of collagen fibrils vary widely depending on experim…
