Stress Relaxation of Entangled Polymer Networks
Gary S. Grest, Mathias Puetz, Kurt Kremer +1
The non-linear stress-strain relation for crosslinked polymer networks is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. Previously we demonstrated the importance of trapped entangl…

Self-similar chain conformations in polymer gels
Mathias Puetz, Ralf Everaers, Kurt Kremer
We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the swelling of randomly end-cross-linked polymer networks in good solvent conditions. We find that the equilibrium degree of swellin…
