Entangled Networks of Semiflexible Polymers
Hinsch, Hauke Polymer networks form complex materials and play a vital role as one of the cytoskeleton's main constituents. Since the cytoskeleton acts as the structural element of the eucaryotic cell, its investigation is crucial for the understanding of a variety of dynamical and mechanical properties in cell biology. In particular, this book focuses on the theoretical description and computer simulation of entangled networks, where the only interaction b...
