Spheres and Prolate and Oblate Ellipsoids from an Analytical Solution of Spontaneous Curvature Fluid Membrane Model
Quan-Hui Liu, Zhou Haijun, Ji-Xing Liu +1
An analytic solution for Helfrich spontaneous curvature membrane model (H. Naito, M.Okuda and Ou-Yang Zhong-Can, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 48}, 2304 (1993); {\bf 54}, 2816 (1996)), which h…
Entropic Elasticity, Cooperative Extensibility and Supercoiling Property of DNA: A Unified Viewpoint
Zhou Haijun, Zhang Yang, Ou-Yang Zhong-can
A unified model is constructed to study the recently observed DNA entropic elasticity, cooperative extensibility, and supercoiling property. With the introduction of a new structur…
Bending and Base-Stacking Interactions in Double-Stranded Semiflexible Polymer
Zhou Haijun, Ou-Yang Zhong-can
Simple expressions for the bending and the base-stacking energy of double-stranded semiflexible biopolymers (such as DNA and actin) are derived. The distribution of the folding ang…
Spontaneous curvature-induced dynamical instability of Kirchhoff filaments: Application to DNA kink deformations
Zhou Haijun, Ou-Yang Zhong-can
The Kirchhoff elastic theory of thin filaments with spontaneous curvature is employed in the understanding of the onset of the kink transitions observed in short DNA rings. Dynamic…
Theory on quench-induced pattern formation: Application to the isotropic to smectic-A phase transitions
Zhou Haijun, Ou-Yang Zhong-can
During catastrophic processes of environmental variations of a thermodynamic system, such as rapid temperature decreasing, many novel and complex patterns often form. To understand…
Bending and Twisting Elasticity: a Revised Marko-Siggia Model on DNA Chirality
Zhou Haijun, Ou-Yang Zhong-can
A revised Marko-Siggia elastic model for DNA double helix [Macromolecules 27, 981 (1994)] is proposed, which includes the WLC bending energy and a new chiral twisting energy term.…
