Simple flexible polymers in a spherical cage

M. Marenz, J. Zierenberg, H. Arkin +1

We report the results of Monte Carlo simulations investigating the effect of a spherical confinement within a simple model for a flexible homopolymer. We use the parallel tempering…

Influence of lattice disorder on the structure of persistent polymer chains

Sebastian Schoebl, Johannes Zierenberg, Wolfhard Janke

We study the static properties of a semiflexible polymer exposed to a quenched random environment by means of computer simulations. The polymer is modeled as two-dimensional Heisen…

Advanced multicanonical Monte Carlo methods for efficient simulations of nucleation processes of polymers

Stefan Schnabel, Michael Bachmann, Wolfhard Janke

The investigation of freezing transitions of single polymers is computationally demanding, since surface effects dominate the nucleation process. In recent studies we have systemat…

Long-range interaction between dust grains in plasma

D. Yu. Mishagli

The nature of long-range interactions between dust grains in plasma is discussed. The dust grain interaction potential within a cell model of dusty plasma is introduced. The attrac…

A two-species continuum model for aeolian sand transport

Marc Lämmel, Daniel Rings, Klaus Kroy

Starting from the physics on the grain scale, we develop a simple continuum description of aeolian sand transport. Beyond popular mean-field models, but without sacrificing their c…

A minimal model for the inelastic mechanics of biopolymer networks and cells

Lars Wolff, Klaus Kroy

Live cells have ambiguous mechanical properties. They were often described as either elastic solids or viscoelastic fluids and have recently been classified as soft glassy material…
