Density--nematic coupling in isotropic linear polymers
Aleksandar Popadić, Daniel Svenšek, Rudolf Podgornik +1
Linear polymers and other connected "line liquids" exhibit a coupling between density and equilibrium nematic order on the macroscopic level that gives rise to a Meyer-de Gennes ve…
Adaptive Resolution Molecular Dynamics Technique: Down to the Essential
Christian Krekeler, Animesh Agarwal, Christoph Junghans +2
We investigate the role of the thermodynamic (TD) force, as an essential and sufficient technical ingredient for an efficient and accurate adaptive resolution algorithm. Such a for…
Splay--density coupling in semiflexible main-chain nematic polymers with hairpins
Aleksandar Popadić, Daniel Svenšek, Rudolf Podgornik +2
We establish a macroscopic description of the splay--density coupling in semiflexible main-chain nematic polymers with hairpins, using a vectorial continuity constraint for the "re…
