Figure 9. State diagram of FA dynamics for stress-control (see Appendix).

The strains used were , , with other parameters are as in Fig. 4, with which this state diagram could be compared. The main effect of stress-control on FA dynamics is that the symmetric growth mode is strongly favored over most low stress values, as seen by the growth of . However, the Treadmilling Mode does hold over a narrow range for kPa, which compares well with the stress of kPa reported by Balaban and co-workers [4]. The Treadmilling Mode gets suppressed for less polarized strains relative to .
