Abstract: Hotani has studied, by means of dark-field light microscopy, morphological transformations which unilamellar liposomes undergo when their interior volume decreases steadily with time as a consequence ...

Abstract: Hotani has filmed morphological transformations in unilamellar liposomes, starting from a spherical shape, when the interior volume decreases steadily. Hotani’s liposomes showed no evidence of ...

Abstract: In the classical “first approximation” theory of thin-shell structures, the constitutive relations for a generic shell element—i.e. the elastic relations between the bending moments and membrane ...
