An Anisotropic Effective Model for the Simulation of Semiflexible Ring Polymers
Peter Poier, Christos N. Likos, Angel J. Moreno +1
We derive and introduce anisotropic effective pair potentials to coarse-grain solutions of semiflexible rings polymers of various lengths. The system has been recently investigated…
Microscopically-resolved simulations prove the existence of soft cluster crystals
Dominic A. Lenz, Ronald Blaak, Christos N. Likos +1
We perform extensive monomer-resolved computer simulations of suitably-designed amphiphilic dendritic macromolecules over a broad range of densities, proving the existence and stab…
Telechelic star polymers as self-assembling units from the molecular to the macroscopic scaleBarbara Capone
Barbara Capone, Ivan Coluzza, Federica Lo verso +2
By means of multiscale molecular simulations, we show that telechelic-star polymers are a simple, robust and tunable system, which hierarchically self-assembles first into soft-pat…
Monomer-resolved simulations of cluster-forming dendrimers
Dominic A. Lenz, Bianca M. Mladek, Christos N. Likos +2
We present results of monomer-resolved Monte Carlo simulations for a system of amphiphilic dendrimers of second generation. Our investigations validate a coarse-grained level descr…
Charge-induced conformational changes of dendrimers
Ronald Blaak, Swen Lehmann, Christos N. Likos
We study the effect of chargeable monomers on the conformation of dendrimers of low generation by computer simulations, employing bare Coulomb interactions. The presence of the lat…
Reversible gelation and dynamical arrest of dipolar colloids
Ronald Blaak, Mark A. Miller, Jean-Pierre Hansen
We use molecular dynamics simulations of a simple model to show that dispersions of slightly elongated colloidal particles with long-range dipolar interactions, like ferrofluids, c…
