In previous work with @davidoriola.bsky.social and Jaume Casademunt, we proposed this model and coarse-grained it to show that it gives rise to the constitutive equations of a viscoelastic active gel.

Fluidization and Active Thinning by Molecular Kinetics in Active Gels
We derive the constitutive equations of an active polar gel from a model for the dynamics of elastic molecules that link polar elements. Molecular binding kinetics induces the fluidization of the mate...
