A unified description of flow-induced scission of wormlike micelles under shear and extensional flows
Yusuke Koide, Takato Ishida, Takashi Uneyama +1
We investigate flow-induced scission of wormlike micelles under different flow kinematics using dissipative particle dynamics simulations of surfactant solutions in shear, uniaxial…
Stress Drops Associated with Surface Crack Formation in Photo-aged Polypropylene during Three-Point Bending
Kazuya Haremaki, Yusuke Koide, Takashi Uneyama +2
Using three-point bending, this study investigates surface-crack formation in photo-aged polypropylene (PP) that has a depth-dependent aging gradient. PP undergoes embrittlement un…

A Review on Molecular Simulations for the Rupture of Polymer Networks
Yuichi Masubuchi, Takato Ishida, Yusuke Koide +1
Molecular simulations provide a powerful means to unravel the complex relationships between network architecture and the mechanical response of polymer networks, with a particular…
Influence of Stretching Boundary Conditions on Fracture in Phantom Star Polymer Networks: From Volume to Cross-sectional Area Conservation
Yuichi Masubuchi, Takato Ishida, Yusuke Koide +1

We investigate the steady-state extensional viscosity of wormlike micellar solutions using dissipative particle dynamics simulations. As the extension rate increases, the steady-st…
Direct observation of the compression behavior of polystyrene microbeads in a diamond anvil cell
Haruto Moriguchi, Ken Niwa, Masashi Hasegawa +4
The pressure dependence of the bulk modulus of glassy polystyrene (PS) was measured in the relatively high-pressure regime, up to 6 GPa, at ambient temperature. For the measurement…
Effects of Stirring Time on Formation of Microplastics Fragmented from Photo-aged Polypropylene
Kazuya Haremaki, Takumitsu Kida, Yusuke Koide +3
This paper examines the evolution of microplastic (MP) size distributions fragmented from photo-aged polypropylene (PP) in stirred water. PP specimens fragmented into MPs with thei…
Nonmonotonic concentration dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient of surfactants in wormlike micellar solutions
Yusuke Koide, Takato Ishida, Takashi Uneyama +1
We investigate the concentration dependence of surfactant diffusion in wormlike micellar solutions using dissipative particle dynamics simulations. The simulations show that the se…
Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics Simulations for Oxidative Aging of Polymers under Various O2 Concentration
