Strain-stiffening response in transient networks formed by reverse wormlike micelles

Strain-stiffening, that is, an increase in material stiffness at large deformations, is a property of many biological materials. Currently, model systems for the study of this phenomenon are elastic networks (gels) of semiflexible filamentous biopolymers such as actin, keratin, or fibrin. Here, we d...
