Dynamic buckling of morphoelastic filaments
The equilibrium shapes of biological structures as diverse as plant tendrils and bacterial filaments can be altered by externally imposed stresses of sufficient duration. We study the simplest model for this morphoelasticity-a filament whose intrinsic curvatures relax to the local curvatures-and ill...
