Force spectroscopy of polymer desorption: Theory and Molecular Dynamics simulation
J. Paturej, J. L. A. Dubbeldam, V. G. Rostiashvili +2
Forced detachment of a single polymer chain, strongly-adsorbed on a solid substrate, is investigated by two complementary methods: a coarse-grained analytical dynamical model, base…
Thermal Degradation of Adsorbed Bottle-Brush Macromolecules: Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Andrey Milchev, Jaroslaw Paturej, Vakhtang G. Rostiashvili +1
The scission kinetics of bottle-brush molecules in solution and on an adhesive substrate is modeled by means of Molecular Dynamics simulation with Langevin thermostat. Our macromol…
Dynamics of a three-dimensional inextensible chain
Franco Ferrari, Jaroslaw Paturej, Thomas A. Vilgis
In the first part of this work the classical and statistical aspects of the dynamics of an inextensible chain in three dimensions are investigated. In the second part the special c…
Polymer desorption under pulling: a novel dichotomic phase transition
S. Bhattacharya, V. G. Rostiashvili, A. Milchev +1
We show that the structural properties and phase behavior of a self-avoiding polymer chain on adhesive substrate, subject to pulling at the chain end, can be obtained by means of a…
The probability distribution of the average relative distance between two points in a dynamical chain
Franco Ferrari, Jaroslaw Paturej, Thomas A. Vilgis +1
Subject of this letter is the dynamics of a chain obtained performing the continuous limit of a system of links and beads. In particular, the probability distribution of the relati…
Applications of a generalization of the nonlinear sigma model with O(d) group of symmetry to the dynamics of a constrained chain
Franco Ferrari, Jaroslaw Paturej, T. A. Vilgis
Subject of this work are the applications of a field theoretical model, called here generalized nonlinear sigma model or simply GNLSM,to the dynamics of a chain subjected to constr…
