Criticality enhances the reinforcement of disordered networks by rigid inclusions
Jordan L. Shivers, Jingchen Feng, Fred C. MacKintosh
The mechanical properties of biological materials are spatially heterogeneous. Typical tissues are made up of a spanning fibrous extracellular matrix in which various inclusions, s…
Stress relaxation in F-actin solutions by severing
S. Arzash, P. M. McCall, J. Feng +2
Networks of filamentous actin (F-actin) are important for the mechanics of most animal cells. These cytoskeletal networks are highly dynamic, with a variety of actin-associated pro…
Normal stress anisotropy and marginal stability in athermal elastic networks
Jordan Shivers, Jingchen Feng, Abhinav Sharma +1
Hydrogels of semiflexible biopolymers such as collagen have been shown to contract axially under shear strain, in contrast to the axial dilation observed for most elastic materials…
Phenomenlogical Modeling of Durotaxis
Guangyuan Yu, Jingchen Feng, Haoran Man +1
Cells exhibit qualitatively different behaviors on substrates with different rigidities. The fact that cells are more polarized on the stiffer substrate motivates us to construct a…
Hindrances to precise recovery of cellular forces in fibrous biopolymer networks
Yunsong Zhang, Jingchen Feng, Shay I. Heizler +1
How cells move through the three-dimensional extracellular matrix (ECM) is of increasing interest in attempts to understand important biological processes such as cancer metastasis…
Modeling delayed processes in biological systems
Jingchen Feng, Stuart Sevier, Bin Huang +2
Delayed processes are ubiquitous in biological systems and are often characterized by delay differential equations (DDEs) and their extension to include stochastic effects. DDEs do…
