Abstract

We analyzed the temporal responses of biological cells in the jumping and vibrating optical tweezers for tugging, wiggling and stretching the cells with the finite element method. Some new concepts were established, which might be investigated in the future experiments, such as the jumping of local stress and local strain, independently on the recovery time of the viscoelastic material and on the jumping frequency, the energy dissipation in the hysteresis cycles, the cytoplasm fluid field and its interaction with the cell membrane. The cell was modeled with full 3D structure and viscoelastic continuum materials.
