Resolution of sub-element length scales in Brownian dynamics simulations of biopolymer networks with geometrically exact beam finite elements

- We model crosslinked biopolymer networks with Brownian dynamics beam finite elements.
- Decoupling chemical and mechanical resolution, we boost computational efficiency.
- Our approach allows for network simulations reaching the scale of eukaryotic cells.
- We account for polar and chiral polymers and filament-linker reaction kinetics.
- We simulate the evolution, rheology, and effects of chirality of large networks.
