Why is the strength of an elastomeric polymer network so low?
Shaswat Mohanty, Jose Blanchet, Zhigang Suo +1
Experiments have long shown that a polymer network of covalent bonds commonly ruptures at a stress that is orders of magnitude lower than the strength of the covalent bonds. Here w…

From Connectivity to Rupture: A Coarse-Grained Stochastic Network Dynamics Approach to Polymer Network Mechanics
Shaswat Mohanty, Wei Cai
We introduce a coarse-grained stochastic network dynamics (CGSND) framework for modeling deformation and rupture in polymer networks. The method replaces explicit molecular dynamic…
