Compressible or incompressible blend of interacting monodisperse star and linear polymers near a surface
Richard Batman, P. D. Gujrati
We consider a lattice model of a mixture of repulsive, attractive, or neutral monodisperse star (species A) and linear (species B) polymers with a third monomeric species C, which…
Transitions of tethered polymer chains: A simulation study with the bond fluctuation lattice model
Jutta Luettmer-Strathmann, Federica Rampf, Wolfgang Paul +1
A polymer chain tethered to a surface may be compact or extended, adsorbed or desorbed, depending on interactions with the surface and the surrounding solvent. This leads to a rich…
A model of weak viscoelastic nematodynamics
Arkady I. Leonov
The paper develops a continuum theory of weak viscoelastic nematodynamics of Maxwell type. It may describe the molecular elasticity effects in mono-domain flows of liquid crystalli…
Weak Viscoelastic Nematodynamics of Maxwell Type
Arkady I. Leonov, Valery S. Volkov
A constitutive theory for weak viscoelastic nematodynamics of Maxwell type is developed using the standard local approach of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Along with particular v…
A Hybrid Model of Rubber Elasticity in Simple Extension
Arkady I. Leonov
A thermodynamically related model is developed for describing elastic rubber-like behavior of amorphous and crystallizing polymers and demonstrated on example of simple extension.…
Analysis of weak elasticity of nematic solids using a continuum approach
A. I. Leonov, V. S. Volkov
This paper formally analyses effects of nematic weak elasticity using the five parametric de Gennes (DG) potential. The analysis is trivialized in a specific (local) Cartesian coor…
