Extreme thermodynamics with polymer gel tori: harnessing thermodynamic instabilities to induce large-scale deformations
Ya-Wen Chang, Michael S. Dimitriyev, Anton Souslov +5
When a swollen, thermoresponsive polymer gel is heated in a solvent bath, it expels solvent and deswells. When this heating is slow, deswelling proceeds homogeneously, as observed…

Curvature corrections to the nonlocal interfacial model for short-ranged forces
Jose M. Romero-Enrique, Alessio Squarcini, Andrew O. Parry +1
In this paper we revisit the derivation of a nonlocal interfacial Hamiltonian model for systems with short-ranged intermolecular forces. Starting from a microscopic Landau-Ginzburg…
