Polyelectrolytes in electric fields: Measuring the dynamical effective charge and effective friction
Kai Grass, Christian Holm
We use a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model to study the electrophoretic behaviour of flexible polyelectrolyte chains. We first characterize the static properties of the model…
Frequency dependent deformation of liquid crystal droplets in an external electric field
Günter K. Auernhammer, Jinyu Zhao, Beate Ullrich +1
Nematic drops suspended in the isotropic phase of the same substance were subjected to alternating electrical fields of varying frequency. The system was carefully kept in the isot…
Polymer desorption under pulling: a novel dichotomic phase transition
S. Bhattacharya, V. G. Rostiashvili, A. Milchev +1
We show that the structural properties and phase behavior of a self-avoiding polymer chain on adhesive substrate, subject to pulling at the chain end, can be obtained by means of a…
Colloidal electrophoresis: Scaling analysis, Green-Kubo relation, and numerical results
B. Duenweg, V. Lobaskin, K. Seethalakshmy-Hariharan +1
We consider electrophoresis of a single charged colloidal particle in a finite box with periodic boundary conditions, where added counterions and salt ions ensure charge neutrality…
Dynamics of a stretched nonlinear polymer chain
M. Febbo, A. Milchev, V. Rostiashvili +2
We study the relaxation dynamics of a coarse-grained polymer chain at different degrees of stretching by both analytical means and numerical simulations. The macromolecule is model…
Lattice Boltzmann simulations of soft matter systems
Burkhard Duenweg, Anthony J. C. Ladd
This article concerns numerical simulations of the dynamics of particles immersed in a continuum solvent. As prototypical systems, we consider colloidal dispersions of spherical pa…
