Reply to Comment on "Anomalous Discontinuity at the Percolation Critical Point of Active Gels"
M. Sheinman, A. Sharma, F. C. MacKintosh
In this reply we discuss definition and estimation of the Fisher exponent in the no-enclaves percolation (NEP) model.
Stress controls the mechanics of collagen networks
Albert James Licup, Stefan Münster, Abhinav Sharma +5
Collagen is the main structural and load-bearing element of various connective tissues, where it forms the extracellular matrix that supports cells. It has long been known that col…
Fluctuation-stabilized marginal networks and anomalous entropic elasticity
Matthew Dennison, Michael Sheinman, Cornelis Storm +1
We study the elastic properties of thermal networks of Hookean springs. In the purely mechanical limit, such systems are known to have vanishing rigidity when their connectivity fa…
Dynamical behavior of disordered spring networks
M. G. Yucht, M. Sheinman, C. P. Broedersz
We study the dynamical rheology of spring networks with a percolation model constructed by bond dilution in a two-dimensional triangular lattice. Hydrodynamic interactions are impl…
Length-Controlled Elasticity in 3D Fiber Networks
C. P. Broedersz, M. Sheinman, F. C. MacKintosh
We present a model for disordered 3D fiber networks to study their linear and nonlinear elasticity over a wide range of network densities and fiber lengths. In contrast to previous…
Nonlinear effective medium theory of disordered spring networks
M. Sheinman, C. P. Broedersz, F. C. MacKintosh
Disordered soft materials, such as fibrous networks in biological contexts exhibit a nonlinear elastic response. We study such nonlinear behavior with a minimal model for networks…
