Affine model of stress stiffening in semiflexible filament networks
J. R. Blundell, E. M. Terentjev
We present a revised theoretical study of the affine assumption applied to semiflexible networks. Drawing on simple models of semiflexible worm-like chains we derive an expression…
Aging and metastability of monoglycerides in hydrophobic solutions
C. H. Chen, E. M. Terentjev
The aging of aggregated structures of monoglycerides in hydrophobic medium is described by a set of different techniques. Polarized microscopy was used to study the mesomorphic beh…
Phase behavior of C18 monoglyceride in hydrophobic solutions
C. H. Chen, I. Van Damme, E. M. Terentjev
We apply a set of different techniques to analyze the physical properties and phase transitions of monoglycerides (MG) in oil. In contrast to many studies of MG in water or aqueous…
Critical fluctuations and random-anisotropy glass transition in nematic elastomers
G. Feio, J. L. Figueirinhas, A. R. Tajbakhsh +1
We carry out a detailed deuterium NMR study of local nematic ordering in polydomain nematic elastomers. This system has a close analogy to the random-anisotropy spin glass. We find…
Non-linear dynamics of absorption and photo-bleaching of dyes
Francesca Serra, Eugene M. Terentjev
The celebrated Lambert-Beer law of light absorption in photochromic media is only valid at low intensities of incident light and low concentration of chromophore. Here we address t…
