Conformations of entangled semiflexible polymers: entropic trapping and transient non-equilibrium distributions
Hauke Hinsch, Erwin Frey
The tube model is a central concept in polymer physics, and allows to reduce the complex many-filament problem of an entangled polymer solution to a single filament description. We…

Non-Affine Shear Modulus in Entangled Networks of Semiflexible Polymers
Hauke Hinsch, Erwin Frey
We investigate the viscoelastic properties of entangled networks of semiflexible polymers. At intermediate time scales the elastic response of these networks to shear deformation i…

Direct observation of the tube model in F-actin solutions
M. Romanowska, H. Hinsch, N. Kirchgessner +5
Mutual uncrossability of polymers generates topological constraints on their conformations and dynamics, which are generally described using the tube model. We imaged confinement t…
