Polymer networks with mobile force-applying crosslinks

Polymer networks with mobile force-applying crosslinks

Thesis (MSc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2011. === ENGLISH ABSTRACT: We construct and study a simple model for an active gel of exible polymer filaments crosslinked by a molecular motor cluster that perform reversible work while translating along the filaments. The filament end points are cross...
