Biomechanical properties obtained from two-component composite CGMD model.

(A) Shear response of the healthy and diseased RBC membranes. (B)-(D) show the vertical displacement fluctuation spectra of healthy and diseased RBC membranes as a function of wave number q. (E) Measured bilayer-cytoskeleton interaction force at different end-to-end distance between two actin junctions, dee, for healthy and defective RBCs.
