This is a result of the nontrivial elastic response to deformations of elastic sheets. We find that the filament’s helical pitch is completely determined by the mechanical properties of the surface, and can be easily tuned by varying the surface stretching rigidity. We propose simple scaling arguments to understand the physical mechanism behind this phenomenon and present a phase diagram indicating under what conditions one should expect a fully flexible chain to behave as a helical semiflexible filament. Finally, we discuss the implications of our results."}],"publisher":"American Physical Society","author":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-7854-2139","id":"bf63d406-f056-11eb-b41d-f263a6566d8b","last_name":"Šarić","first_name":"Anđela","full_name":"Šarić, Anđela"},{"last_name":"Pàmies","first_name":"Josep C.","full_name":"Pàmies, Josep C."},{"full_name":"Cacciuto, Angelo","first_name":"Angelo","last_name":"Cacciuto"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1005.2429","open_access":"1"}],"publication_status":"published","acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the National Science Foundation under Career Grant No. DMR-0846426.","extern":"1","_id":"10391","date_created":"2021-11-29T15:14:33Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"issue":"22","title":"Effective elasticity of a flexible filament bound to a deformable cylindrical surface","type":"journal_article","year":"2010","status":"public","pmid":1,"citation":{"chicago":"Šarić, Anđela, Josep C.
