Measuring response functions of active materials from data

Mehdi Molaei, Steven A. Redford, Wen-hung Chou +4

From flocks of birds to biomolecular assemblies, systems in which many individual components independently consume energy to perform mechanical work exhibit a wide array of strikin…

Zyxin is all you need: machine learning adherent cell mechanics

Matthew S. Schmitt, Jonathan Colen, Stefano Sala +5

Cellular form and function emerge from complex mechanochemical systems within the cytoplasm. No systematic strategy currently exists to infer large-scale physical properties of a c…

Entropy Production Rate is Maximized in Non-Contractile Actomyosin

Daniel S. Seara, Vikrant Yadav, Ian Linsmeier +5

The actin cytoskeleton is an active semi-flexible polymer network whose non-equilibrium properties coordinate both stable and contractile behaviors to maintain or change cell shape…

A coin vibrational motor swimming at low Reynolds number

Alice C. Quillen, Hesam Askari, Douglas H. Kelley +2

Low-cost coin vibrational motors, used in haptic feedback, exhibit rotational internal motion inside a rigid case. Because the motor case motion exhibits rotational symmetry, when…

The Isotropic to Nematic Liquid Crystalline Phase Transition of F-actin Varies from Continuous to First Order

Jorge Viamontes, Patrick W. Oakes, Jay X. Tang

We report that the properties of the isotropic to nematic liquid crystalline phase transition of F-actin depend critically on the average filament length. For average filament leng…
