Thermally activated breakdown in a simple polymer model
S. Fugmann, I. M. Sokolov
We consider the thermally activated fragmentation of a homopolymer chain. In our simple model the dynamics of the intact chain is a Rouse one until a bond breaks and bond breakdown…

Non-monotonic dependence of the rupture force in polymer chains on their lengths
S. Fugmann, I. M. Sokolov
We consider the rupture dynamics of a homopolymer chain pulled at one end at a constant loading rate. Our model of the breakable polymer is related to the Rouse chain, with the onl…

Scaling in rupture of polymer chains
S. Fugmann, I. M. Sokolov
We consider the rupture dynamics of a homopolymer chain pulled at one end at a constant loading rate r. Compared to single bond breaking, the existence of the chain introduces two…
