Elasticity of polymer vesicles by osmotic pressure: an intermediate theory between fluid membranes and solid shells

Z. C. Tu, L. Q. Ge, J. B. Li +1

The entropy of a polymer confined in a curved surface and the elastic free energy of a membrane consisting of polymers are obtained by scaling analysis. It is found that the elasti…
