Dynamics of viscoelastic membranes | Alex J. Levine

1 Sep 2001 | Subject: | Soft Condensed Matter | cond-mat.soft | Abstract: | We determine both the in-plane and out-of-plane dynamics of viscoelastic membranes separating two viscous fluids in order to understand microrheological studies of such membranes. We demonstrate the general viscoelastic signatures in the dynamics of shear, bending, and compression modes. We also find a screening of the otherwise two-dimensional character of the response to point forces due to the presence of solvent. Finally, we show that there is a linear, hydrodynamic coupling between the in-plane compression modes of the membrane and the out-of-plane bending modes in the case where the membrane separates two different fluids or environments. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0108552 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
