Universal size properties of "star-ring" polymer structure in disordered environment

K. Haydukivska, V. Blavatska

We consider the complex polymer system, consisting of ring polymer connected to the -branched star-like structure, in good solvent in presence of structural inhomogeneities. W…

Application of the Eckart frame to soft matter: rotation of star polymers under shear flow

Jurij Sablić, Rafael Delgado-Buscalioni, Matej Praprotnik

The Eckart co-rotating frame is used to analyze the dynamics of star polymers under shear flow, either in melt or solution and with different types of bonds. This formalism is comp…

Wetting in the presence of the electric field: The classical density functional theory study for a model system

Vasyl Myhal, Oleg Derzhko

We discuss the effect of an external electric field on the wetting of a solid surface by liquid. To this end, we use a model of the two-level-atom fluid for which the changes in in…
