Dynamical Monte Carlo Study of Equilibrium Polymers (II): The Role of Rings
J. P. Wittmer, P. van der Schoot, A. Milchev +1
We investigate by means of a number of different dynamical Monte Carlo simulation methods the self-assembly of equilibrium polymers in dilute, semidilute and concentrated solutions…
On two intrinsic length scales in polymer physics: topological constraints vs. entanglement length
M. Mueller, J. P. Wittmer, J. -L. Barrat
The interplay of topological constraints, excluded volume interactions, persistence length and dynamical entanglement length in solutions and melts of linear chains and ring polyme…
Topological effects in ring polymers (II): Influence of persistence length
M. Muller, J. P. Wittmer, M. E. Cates
The interplay of topological constraints and persistence length of ring polymers in their own melt is investigated by means of dynamical Monte Carlo simulations of a three dimensio…
Topological effects in ring polymers: A computer simulation study
M. Mueller, J. P. Wittmer, M. E. Cates
Unconcatenated, unknotted polymer rings in the melt are subject to strong interactions with neighboring chains due to the presence of topological constraints. We study this by comp…
