Buckling and Torsional Instabilities of a Nanoscale Biological Rope Bound to an Elastic Substrate by Chris Peacock (9437559)

“…In addition, in ambient conditions, the sine wave response coexists with the formation of loops along the length of the fibrils, as observed for the torsional instability of a twisted filament when tension is decreased. This work provides direct evidence that single collagen fibrils are highly susceptible to axial compression because of their helical supermolecular structure. …”
