Buckling of semiflexible filaments under compression
A model for filament buckling at finite temperatures is presented. Starting from the classical worm-like chain model under constant compression, we use a mean-field approach for filament inextensibility to find the complete partition function. We find that there is a simple interpolation formula that describes the free energy of chains or filaments as a function of end-to-end separation, which ...
متن کاملCollective Dynamics of Self-propelled Semiflexible Filaments
The collective behavior of active semiflexible filaments is studied with a model of tangentially driven self-propelled worm-like chains. The combination of excluded-volume interactions and selfpropulsion leads to several distinct dynamic phases as a function of bending rigidity, activity, and aspect ratio of individual filaments. We consider first the case of intermediate filament density. For ...
متن کاملDynamics of folding in semiflexible filaments.
The dynamics of a single semiflexible filament under the action of a compressing force is simulated. We find that the filament folds asymmetrically with a folding length which depends only on the bending stiffness kappa and the applied force f. It is shown that this behavior can be attributed to the exponentially falling tension profile in the filament. While the folding time tau(0) depends on ...
متن کاملSemiflexible Polymers and Filaments
(F-) actin or microtubules belong to the class of semiflexible polymers. The biological function of these polymers requires considerable mechanical rigidity. For example, actin filaments are the main structural elements of the cytoskeleton in which actin filaments form a network rigid enough to maintain the shape of the cell and to transmit forces, yet flexible enough to allow for cell motion a...
