#molecularmotor — Public Fediverse posts

Our article on the #mechanics of "active" entropic biopolymer networks [possibly including #actomyosin, this is debated experimentally] is now published in J Elas.

Compared to enthalpic models, we're able to go right from the #thermodynamics of an unbiased #molecularMotor activity (in the spirit of the model by #JacquesProst for #myosin) at the molecular scale to a network-scale model in a closed form.

And we derive a method for solving quite easily the (usually tough) #viscoelastic #liquid model that we obtain, using #deformationGradientDecomposition.

Three days of work, the first step of a new project. Happy 😊.
