Transient Binding and Dissipation in Semi-flexible Polymer Networks
O. Lieleg, M. M. A. E. Claessens, Y. Luan +1
While polymer solutions lack the mechanical stability only transiently cross-linked networks can fulfill the competing requirements of structural stability and maximal energy dissi…
Micro- and Macrorheological Properties of Isotropically Cross-linked Actin Networks
Yuxia Luan, Oliver Lieleg, Bernd Wagner +1
Cells make use of semi-flexible biopolymers such as actin or intermediate filaments to control their local viscoelastic response by dynamically adjusting the concentration and type…
Mechanics of bundled semiflexible polymer networks
O. Lieleg, M. M. A. E. Claessens, C. Heussinger +2
While actin bundles are used by living cells for structural fortification, the microscopic origin of the elasticity of bundled networks is not understood. Here, we show that above…
