Nonequilibrium free energy during polymer chain growth
Michael Bley, Joachim Dzubiella
During fast diffusion-influenced polymerization, nonequilibrium behavior of the polymer chains and the surrounding reactive monomers has been reported recently. Based on the laws o…
Active interaction switching controls the dynamic heterogeneity of soft colloidal dispersions
Michael Bley, Pablo I. Hurtado, Joachim Dzubiella +1
We employ Reactive Dynamical Density Functional Theory (R-DDFT) and Reactive Brownian Dynamics (R-BD) simulations to investigate the dynamics of a suspension of active soft Gaussia…
Modulating internal transition kinetics in responsive macromolecules by collective crowding
Upayan Baul, Nils Goeth, Michael Bley +1
Packing and crowding are used in biology as mechanisms to (self-)regulate internal molecular or cellular processes based on collective signalling. Here, we study how the transition…
Controlling Solvent Quality by Time: Self-Avoiding Sprints in Nonequilibrium Polymerization
Michael Bley, Upayan Baul, Joachim Dzubiella
A fundamental paradigm in polymer physics is that macromolecular conformations in equilibrium can be described by universal scaling laws, being key for structure, dynamics, and fun…
Thermal compaction of disordered and elastin-like polypeptides: a temperature-dependent, sequence-specific coarse-grained simulation model
Upayan Baul, Michael Bley, Joachim Dzubiella
Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) undergo a sharp solubility transition from low temperature solvated phases to coacervates at elevated temperatures, driven by the increased strengt…
