Statistical field theory for nonlinear elasticity of polymer networks with excluded volume interactions
Pratik Khandagale, Timothy Breitzman, Carmel Majidi +1
Polymer networks formed by cross linking flexible polymer chains are ubiquitous in many natural and synthetic soft-matter systems. Current micromechanics models generally do not ac…

Nonlinear Statistical Mechanics Drives Intrinsic Electrostriction and Volumetric Torque in Polymer Networks
Matthew Grasinger, Carmel Majidi, Kaushik Dayal
Statistical mechanics is an important tool for understanding polymer electroelasticity because the elasticity of polymers is primarily due to entropy. However, a common approach fo…
