Journal ArticleDOI
Structural and kinetic features of amyloid beta-protein fibrillogenesis.
TL;DR: The current state of knowledge of A beta fibrillogenesis is reviewed, with special emphasis placed on the morphologic, structural, and kinetic aspects of this complex process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viscoelasticity of concentrated isotropic solutions of semiflexible polymers. 1. Model and stress tensor
TL;DR: In this paper, the viscoelastic behavior of entangled solutions of semi-lexible chains is discussed, and a general expression for the stress tensor of a solution of worm-like chains is derived, which may be applied to any concentration regime, and three intramolecular stress contributions are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics of Nanotube and Microfiber Scission under Sonication
Antoine Lucas,Cécile Zakri,Maryse Maugey,Matteo Pasquali,Paul van der Schoot,Philippe Poulin +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the average length of carbon nanotubes is measured by means of dynamic light scattering as a function of time t, and it is observed that L(t) scales as t−n, with n ≅ 0.2.

Models and equilibrium properties of stiff molecular chains
TL;DR: In this paper, the partition functions of discrete as well as continuous stiff molecular chains are calculated using the maximum entropy principle, and it is shown that the second moments for the chain of flexible segments agree exactly with those known from the freely rotating chain for both discrete and continuous chains.

Brownian Motion of Stiff Filaments in a Crowded Environment
TL;DR: Using near-infrared video microscopy, this work studied the thermal diffusion of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes confined in porous agarose networks and found that even a small bending flexibility of SWNTs strongly enhances their motion: the rotational diffusion constant is proportional to the filament-bending compliance and is independent of the network pore size.
