Results for shear deformation. (a) Stress–strain curves of α-syn and three Aβ40 and two Aβ42 fibrils. Circles refer to v = 0.0005 Å/τ. The error bars are the same as the symbol size and they are based on 50 independent simulations for each structure. The inset shows the corresponding cross-section area in nm2. (b) Distributions of the HB lengths for Inline graphic (solid lines) and for a finite Inline graphic corresponding to the end of the linear regime (dashed lines), which is 0.04 for α-syn and 0.025 for Aβ amyloids. In the case of Aβ40 with PDB ID: 2M4J has been calculated at strain Inline graphic.
