Figure 6

Nonaffine deformation by axial displacement δz of the primary filament (drawn as a solid line, horizontally) and subsequent transverse deflection y of the crosslinks to restore the segment lengths of the other filaments (dashed lines), to first order in δz). Circles are crosslinks before and after deformation.
