Free energy of alternating two-component polymer brushes on cylindrical templates
William L. Miller, Behnaz Bozorgui, Katherine Klymko +1
We use computer simulations to investigate the stability of a two-component polymer brush de-mixing on a curved template into phases of different morphological properties. It has b…
Free Energy of Multiple Overlapping Chains
Katherine Klymko, Angelo Cacciuto
How accurate is pair additivity in describing interactions between soft polymer-based nanoparticles? Using numerical simulations we compute the free energy cost required to overlap…
Soft elastic surfaces as a platform for particle self-assembly
Andela Šarić, Angelo Cacciuto
We perform numerical simulations to study self-assembly of nanoparticles mediated by an elastic planar surface. We show how the nontrivial elastic response to deformations of these…
Two-Dimensional Packing of Soft Particles and the Soft Generalized Thomson Problem
William L. Miller, Angelo Cacciuto
We perform numerical simulations of purely repulsive soft colloidal particles interacting via a generalized elastic potential and constrained to a two-dimensional plane and to the…
Reshaping elastic nanotubes via self-assembly of surface-adhesive nanoparticles
Josep C. Pàmies, Angelo Cacciuto
Elastic sheets with macroscopic dimensions are easy to deform by bending and stretching. Yet shaping nanometric sheets by mechanical manipulation is hard. Here we show that nanopar…
