## Abstract The biological membrane, which compartmentalizes the cell and its organelles, exhibits wide variety of macroscopic shapes of varying morphology and topology. A systematic understanding of the relation of membrane shapes to composition, external field, environmental conditions, etc. have
The persistence length and effective long-range bending rigidity are derived for a discrete model of an anisotropically bending filament and shown to be independent of the torsional rigidity. The twisting persistence length is found to be independent of the anisotropic bending rigidity. Other statis
Numerous experimental studies indicate that as a result of shear stress, the elastic behavior of granular media becomes both non-linear and anisotropic. This paper presents a simple constitutive model for sands with respect to anisotropic elasticity. To this aim, using the concept of second order fa
