Propagation and Relaxation of Tension in Stiff Polymers
Oskar Hallatschek, Erwin Frey, Klaus Kroy
We present a unified theory for the longitudinal dynamic response of a stiff polymer in solution to various external perturbations (mechanical excitations, hydrodynamic flows, elec…
Overdamped Stress Relaxation in Buckled Rods
Oskar Hallatschek, Erwin Frey, Klaus Kroy
We present a comprehensive theoretical analysis of the stress relaxation in a multiply but weakly buckled incompressible rod in a viscous solvent. In the bulk two interesting regim…
Non-equilibrium behavior of lysozyme solutions: beads, clusters and gels
H. Sedgwick, K. Kroy, A. Salonen +3
Observation of salt-induced aggregation of lysozyme at pH = 4.5, 22C by optical microscopy revealed four regimes: bicontinuous texture, `beads', large aggregates, and tra…
On the Viscosity of Emulsions
Klaus Kroy, Isabelle Capron, Madeleine Djabourov
Combining direct computations with invariance arguments, Taylor's constitutive equation for an emulsion can be extrapolated to high shear rates. We show that the resulting expressi…
Physics of Solutions and Networks of Semiflexible Macromolecules and the Control of Cell Function
Erwin Frey, Klaus Kroy, Jan Wilhelm
Living cells are soft bodies of a characteristic form, but endowed with a capacity for a steady turnover of their structures. Both of these material properties, i.e. recovery of th…
