Dynamics and Rheology of Ring-Linear Blend Semidilute Solutions in Extensional Flow: Single Molecule Experiments
Yuecheng Zhou, Charles D. Young, Kathryn E. Regan +7
Ring polymers exhibit unique flow properties due to their closed chain topology. Despite recent progress, we have not yet achieved a full understanding of the nonequilibrium flow b…
Dynamics and Rheology of Ring-Linear Blend Semidilute Solutions in Extensional Flow: Modeling and Molecular Simulations
Charles D. Young, Yuecheng Zhou, Charles M. Schroeder +1
We use Brownian dynamics (BD) simulations and single molecule experiments to investigate the influence of topological constraints and hydrodynamic interactions on the dynamics and…
Unexpected entanglement dynamics in semidilute blends of supercoiled and ring DNA
Karthik R. Peddireddy, Megan Lee, Yuecheng Zhou +4
Blends of polymers of different topologies, such as ring and supercoiled, naturally occur in biology and often exhibit emergent viscoelastic properties coveted in industry. However…
Dynamically Heterogeneous Relaxation of Entangled Polymer Chains
Yuecheng Zhou, Charles M. Schroeder
Stress relaxation following deformation of an entangled polymeric liquid is thought to be affected by transient reforming of chain entanglements. In this work, we use single molecu…
