Elastic response of filamentous networks with compliant crosslinks
A. Sharma, M. Sheinman, K. M. Heidemann +1
Experiments have shown that elasticity of disordered filamentous networks with compliant crosslinks is very different from networks with rigid crosslinks. Here, we model and analyz…
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…
Molecular motors robustly drive active gels to a critically connected state
Jose Alvarado, Michael Sheinman, Abhinav Sharma +2
Living systems often exhibit internal driving: active, molecular processes drive nonequilibrium phenomena such as metabolism or migration. Active gels constitute a fascinating clas…
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…
