Soliton Staircases and Standing Strain Waves in Confined Colloidal Crystals
Yu-Hang Chui, Surajit Sengupta, Kurt Binder
We show by computer simulation of a two-dimensional crystal confined by corrugated walls that confinement can be used to impose a controllable mesoscopic superstructure of predomin…
Out of Equilibrium Characteristics of a Forced Translocating Chain through a Nanopore
Aniket Bhattacharya, Kurt Binder
Polymer translocation through a nano-pore in a thin membrane is studied using a coarse-grained bead-spring model and Langevin dynamics simulation with a particular emphasis to expl…
Effective interactions and melting of a one dimensional defect lattice within a two-dimensional confined colloidal solid
Yu-Hang Chui, Surajit Sengupta, Ian K. Snook +1
We report Monte Carlo studies of a two-dimensional soft colloidal crystal confined in a strip geometry by parallel walls. The wall-particle interaction has corrugations along the l…
How to Define Variation of Physical Properties Normal to an Undulating One-Dimensional Object
Hsiao-Ping Hsu, Kurt Binder, Wolfgang Paul
One-dimensional flexible objects are abundant in physics, from polymers to vortex lines to defect lines and many more. These objects structure their environment and it is natural t…
Phase Transitions and Relaxation Processes in Macromolecular Systems: The Case of Bottle-brush Polymers
Hsiao-Ping Hsu, Wolfgang Paul, Panagiotis E. Theodorakis +1
As an example for the interplay of structure, dynamics, and phase behavior of macromolecular systems, this article focuses on the problem of bottle-brush polymers with either rigid…
Multiscale modeling of polymers at interfaces
Fathollah Varnik, Kurt Binder
A brief review of modeling and simulation methods for a study of polymers at interfaces is provided. When studying truly multiscale problems as provided by realistic polymer system…
