Nanoscale topography and poroelastic properties of model tissue breast gland basement membranes
Gloria Fabris, Alessandro Lucantonio, Nico Hampe +4
Basement membranes (BMs) are thin layers of condensed extracellular matrix proteins serving as permeability filters, cellular anchoring sites, and barriers against cancer cell inva…
Spontaneous morphing of equibiaxially pre-stretched elastic bilayers: the role of sample geometry
Noè Caruso, Aleksandar Cvetković, Alessandro Lucantonio +2
An elastic bilayer, consisting of an equibiaxially pre-stretched sheet bonded to a stress-free one, spontaneously morphs into curved shapes in the absence of external loads or cons…
Coupled swelling and nematic reordering in liquid crystal gels
Alessandro Lucantonio, Antonio DeSimone
We derive a multiphysics model that accounts for network elasticity with spontaneous strains, swelling and nematic interactions in liquid crystal gels (LCGs). We discuss the coupli…
