Non-Gaussian curvature distribution of actin-propelled biomimetric colloid trajectories (online first) (2008)

Schmidt, S., Biesheuvel, P.M., Weinkamer, R., Helfer, E., Fery, A.

We analyze the motion of colloids propelled by a comet-like tail of polymerizing actin filaments. The curvature of the particle trajectories deviates strongly from a Gaussian distribution, implying...

Surface immobilization and mechanical properties of catanionic hollow faceted polyhedrons (2006)

Delorme, N., Dubois, M., Garnier, S., Laschewsky, A., Weinkamer, R., Zemb, T., ...

We report here for the first time on surface immobilization of hollow faceted polyhedrons formed from catanionic surfactant mixtures. We find that electrostatic interaction with the substrate...

Dynamics of mesoscopic precipitate lattices in phase separating alloys under external load (2000)

Weinkamer, R., Gupta, H., Fratzl, P., Lebowitz, J. L.

We investigate, via three-dimensional atomistic computer simulations, phase separation in an alloy under external load. A regular two-dimensional array of cylindrical precipitates, forming a...

New Suggestions for the Mechanical Control of Bone Remodeling

Dunlop, J. W. C., Hartmann, M. A., Bréchet, Y. J., Fratzl, P., Weinkamer, R.

Bone is constantly renewed over our lifetime through the process of bone (re)modeling. This process is important for bone to allow it to adapt to its mechanical environment and to repair damage from...
