Plateau moduli of Kremer-Grest models for commodity polymer melts

Carsten Svaneborg, Ralf Everaers

We estimate the plateau moduli of highly entangled end-pinned bead-spring polymer melts with Z = 100 and Z = 200 from the time-dependent elastic response to a step strain, which we…

Multiscale equilibration of highly entangled isotropic model polymer melts

Carsten Svaneborg, Ralf Everaers

We present a computationally efficient multiscale method for preparing equilibrated, isotropic long chain model polymer melts. As an application we generate Kremer-Grest melts of $…

Computational study of the cross-link and the entanglement contributions to the elastic properties of model PDMS networks

Igor A. Gula, Hossein Ali Karimi-Varzaneh, Carsten Svaneborg

We built randomly cross-linked model PDMS networks and used Molecular Dynamics Methods to obtain stress-strain curves. Mooney-Rivlin (MR) analysis was used to estimate the shear mo…

Dynamics of dense hard sphere colloidal systems: a numerical analysis

Paolo Sibani, Carsten Svaneborg

The applicability to dense hard sphere colloidal suspensions of a general coarse-graining approach called Record Dynamics (RD) is tested by extensive molecular dynamics simulations…

Kremer-Grest models for commodity polymer melts: Linking theory, experiment and simulation at the Kuhn scale

Ralf Everaers, Hossein Ali Karimi-Varzaneh, Nils Hojdis +2

The Kremer-Grest (KG) polymer model is a standard model for studying generic polymer properties in Molecular Dynamics simulations. It owes its popularity to its simplicity and comp…

Characteristic time and length scales in melts of Kremer-Grest bead-spring polymers with wormlike bending stiffness

Carsten Svaneborg, Ralf Everaers

The Kremer-Grest (KG) model is a standard for studying generic polymer properties. Here we have equilibrated KG melts up to and beyond entanglements per chain for varying cha…
