ESPResSo++: A Fast and Extensible Molecular Simulation Package for Coarse-Grained Models

Zhen-Hao Xu, James Vance, Nikita Tretyakov +9

ESPResSo++ is an open-source software package for molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with a particular emphasis on coarse-grained (CG) models of soft matter systems. Written in C+…

Hierarchical modeling of polystyrene melts: From soft blobs to atomistic resolution

Guojie Zhang, Anthony Chazirakis, Vagelis A. Harmandaris +3

We demonstrate that hierarchical backmapping strategies incorporating generic blob-based models can equilibrate melts of high-molecular-weight polymers, described with chemically s…

One size fits all: equilibrating chemically different polymer liquids through universal long-wavelength description

Guojie Zhang, Torsten Stuehn, Kostas Ch. Daoulas +1

Mesoscale behavior of polymers is frequently described by universal laws. This physical property motivates us to propose a new modeling concept, grouping polymers into classes with…

Depleted Depletion Drives Polymer Swelling in Poor Solvent Mixtures

Debashish Mukherji, Carlos M. Marques, Torsten Stuehn +1

Macromolecular solubility in solvent mixtures often exhibit striking and paradoxical nature. For example, when two well miscible poor solvents for a given polymer are mixed togethe…
