Surface scaling analysis of hydrogels: From multiaffine to self-affine scaling
G. M. Buendia, S. J. Mitchell, P. A. Rikvold
We show that smoothing of multiaffine surfaces that are generated by simulating a crosslinked polymer gel by a frustrated, triangular network of springs of random equilibrium lengt…
Rejection-free Monte Carlo Algorithms for Models with Continuous Degrees of Freedom
J. D. Munoz, M. A. Novotny, S. J. Mitchell
We construct a rejection-free Monte Carlo algorithm for a system with continuous degrees of freedom. We illustrate the algorithm by applying it to the classical three-dimensional H…
Ab initio Monte Carlo simulations for finite-temperature properties: Application to lithium clusters and bulk liquid lithium
Sanwu Wang, Steven J. Mitchell, Per Arne Rikvold
Ab initio Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to determine the equilibrium properties of liquid lithium and lithium clusters at different temperatures. First-principles den…
Surface Scaling Analysis of a Frustrated Spring-network Model for Surfactant-templated Hydrogels
G. M. Buendia, S. J. Mitchell, P. A. Rikvold
We propose and study a simplified model for the surface and bulk structures of crosslinked polymer gels, into which voids are introduced through templating by surfactant micelles.…
Halide Adsorption on Single-crystal Silver Substrates: Dynamic Simulations and ab-initio Density-functional Theory
S. J. Mitchell, Sanwu Wang, P. A. Rikvold
We investigate the static and dynamic behaviors of a Br adlayer electrochemically deposited onto single-crystal Ag(100) using an off-lattice model of the adlayer. Unlike previous s…
Scaling Analysis of Surfactant Templated Polyacrylamide Gel Surfaces
Mukundan Chakrapani, S. J. Mitchell, D. H. Van Winkle +1
Surfaces of surfactant-templated polyacrylamide hydrogels were imaged by atomic force microscopy (AFM), and the surface morphology was studied by numerical scaling analysis. The te…
