W-potentials in nonlinear biophysics of microtubules

Abstract

In the present article we investigate the nonlinear dynamics of microtubules, the basic components of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton, and rely on the known general model. A crucial interaction among constitutive particles is modelled using W-potential. Three kinds of this potential are studied, symmetrical and two non-symmetrical. We demonstrate an advantage of the latter ones.
