Tactile sensing mechanisms
TL;DR: The design of a cylindrical tactile sensor, mechanical analysis using planar linear elas ticity models, and signal analysis for determining basic infor mation about the applied contact are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of cell orientation
TL;DR: The model predicts many features observed in measurements of cellular forces and orientation including the increase with time of the cellular forces in the absence of applied stress and the consequent decrease of the force in the presence of quasi-static stresses.

Cofilin increases the bending flexibility of actin filaments: implications for severing and cell mechanics.
TL;DR: Knowledge of the effects of cofilin on actin filament bending mechanics, together with the previous analysis of torsional stiffness, provide a quantitative measure of the mechanical changes in actin filaments associated with co filin binding, and suggest that the overall mechanical and force-producing properties of cells can be modulated by cofilIn activity.

Elastic Wave Transmission at an Abrupt Junction in a Thin Plate, with Application to Heat Transport and Vibrations in Mesoscopic Systems
Michael Cross,Ron Lifshitz +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the transmission coefficient for vibrational waves crossing an abrupt junction between two thin elastic plates of different widths is calculated, and the results for long-wavelength modes are obtained using full elasticity theory.

Ostwald Ripening and Related Phenomena
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of micelles on various mass transfer processes in surfactant systems, such as Ostwald ripening, composition ripening and adsorption from micellar solutions, and solubilization kinetics are discussed.
