End Grafted Polymer Nanoparticles in a Polymeric Matrix: Effect of Coverage and Curvature
Joshua Kalb, Douglas Dukes, Sanat K. Kumar +2
It has recently been proposed that the miscibility of nanoparticles with a polymer matrix can be controlled by grafting polymer chains to the nanoparticle surface. As a first step…

Minimal energy packings and collapse of sticky tangent hard-sphere polymers
Robert S. Hoy, Corey S. O'Hern
We enumerate all minimal energy packings (MEPs) for small single linear and ring polymers composed of spherical monomers with contact attractions and hard-core repulsions, and comp…

Viscoplasticity and large-scale chain relaxation in glassy-polymeric strain hardening
Robert S. Hoy, Corey S. O'Hern
A simple theory for glassy polymeric mechanical response which accounts for large scale chain relaxation is presented. It captures the crossover from perfect-plastic response to st…
