On the effects of mechanical stress of biological membranes in modeling of swelling dynamics of biological systems

We highlight mechanical stretching and bending of membranes and the importance of membrane deformations in the analysis of swelling dynamics of biological systems, including cells and subcellular organelles. Membrane deformation upon swelling generates tensile stress and internal pressure, contribut...
