The simple model proposed here indicates that in one case the system undergoes a transition akin to the unzipping of a $\beta$ sheet, while in the other case the transition is of a shearing(slippage) nature. Our results are in accordance with experiments. Ref.: Sanjay Kumar and Debaprasad Giri Phys. Rev.
