Nanoindentation of model for CCMV.

The figure contains four panels, each consisting of two subpanels. The lower subpanel shows the variation of force with separation and the upper shows – the fraction of unbroken native contacts for one simulation at the indicated parameters. The top two panels show the temperature dependence of for flat plates, with numbers indicating the value of . The left shows three trajectories for from Ref. [16] and one for zero temperature that is uniformly higher. The right repeats one trajectory for and shows two trajectories for each other temperature. The value of is plotted for one case at the high and low temperatures. The two lower panels show the role of curvature in one of the indenting surfaces. Here,  = 0.3 and numbers indicate the radius of the tip in nm. The lower left panel compares single trajectories obtained for three values of to the flat results above. The lower right panel shows three trajectories for  = 30 nm.
