Chemical and electrical interaction within and between the cells is well established and
studied. Just the opposite is truth about the cellular interactions via other physical fields. The …

In this paper, elastic beam model using nonlocal elasticity theory is developed for the
bending analysis of microtubules (MTs) based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. The size …

A simple nonlocal beam model is proposed to study buckling response of protein
microtubules. The size-effect for buckling model of microtubules is considered by using the …

In this paper, the size-effects in the torsional and axial response of microtubules by using the
nonlocal continuum rod model is investigated. To this end, continuous and discrete rod …

Cells are a fundamental structural, functional and biological unit for all living organisms. Up
till now, considerable efforts have been made to study the responses of single cells and …

Microtubules are electrically polar structures fulfilling prerequisites for generation of
oscillatory electric field in the kHz to GHz region. Energy supply for excitation of elasto …

Microtubules are important structures in the cytoskeleton, which organizes the cell. Since
microtubules are electrically polar, certain microtubule normal vibration modes efficiently …

In this article, a new explicit formula is presented for the length-dependent persistence
length of microtubules with consideration of surface effects. Further, surface effects on the …

This book is intended to bring together a scientific platform that covers very recent analytical
methods in nonlinear systems, which mainly developed during the past few decades. The …

Free vibration analysis of MICROTUBULES (MTs) is presented based on the EULER-
BERNOULLI BEAM theory. The size effect is taken into consideration using the Eringen's …
