Size-Dependent Mechanics of the Adherens Junction Mediated by Cooperative trans and cis Bindings
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The adherens junction (AJ) plays an important role in many collective mechanobiological processes, such as gastrulation, embryonic morphogenesis, and tissue homeostasis. In this study, we construct a coarse-grained Monte ...
Analytical Form-Finding for Highly Symmetric and Super-Stable Configurations of Rhombic Truncated Regular Polyhedral Tensegrities
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tensegrities have exhibited great importance and numerous applications in many mechanical, aerospace, and biological systems, for which symmetric configurations are preferred as the tensegrity prototypes. Besides the ...
