Polymer Glass Formation: Role of Activation Free Energy, Configurational Entropy, and Collective Motion
Wen-Sheng Xu, Jack F. Douglas, Zhao-Yan Sun
We provide a perspective on polymer glass formation, with an emphasis on models in which the fluid entropy and collective particle motion dominate the theoretical description and d…
Dynamics in two-dimensional glassy systems of crowded Penrose kites
Yan-Wei Li, Zi-Qi Li, Zhang-Lin Hou +4
We investigate the translational and rotational relaxation dynamics of a crowded two-dimensional system of monodisperse Penrose kites, in which crystallization, quasi-crystallizati…
Long-wavelength fluctuations and anomalous dynamics in two-dimensional liquids
Yanwei Li, Chandan K. Mishra, Zhaoyan Sun +4
Long-wavelength Mermin-Wagner fluctuations prevent the existence of translational long-range order, in two-dimensional systems at finite temperature. Their dynamical signature, whi…
Glass formation in a mixture of hard disks and hard ellipses
Wen-Sheng Xu, Xiaozheng Duan, Zhao-Yan Sun +1
We present an event-driven molecular dynamics study of glass formation in two-dimensional binary mixtures composed of hard disks and hard ellipses, where both types of particles ha…
