Replica-Averaging: An algorithm to study mechano-reactive processes for polymers under flow conditions
Sagar Kania, Anh H. Nguyen, Alparslan Oztekin +1
A new method based on quasi-independent parallel simulations approach, replica-averaging, has been developed to study the influence of flow on mechanical force-mediated polymer pro…
Liquid Nanodroplets Spreading on Chemically Patterned Surfaces
Gary S. Grest, David R. Heine, Edmund B. Webb
Controlling the spatial distribution of liquid droplets on surfaces via surface energy patterning can be used to control material delivery to specified regions via selective liquid…
Modeling metallic island coalescence stress via adhesive contact between surfaces
Steven C. Seel, Jeffrey J. Hoyt, Edmund B. Webb +1
Tensile stress generation associated with island coalescence is almost universally observed in thin films that grow via the Volmer-Weber mode. The commonly accepted mechanism for t…
Diverse Spreading Behavior of Binary Polymer Nanodroplets
David R. Heine, Gary S. Grest, Edmund B. Webb
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the spreading of binary polymer nanodroplets in a cylindrical geometry. The polymers, described by the bead-spring model, spread on…
Surface Wetting of Liquid Nanodroplets
David R. Heine, Gary S. Grest, Edmund B. Webb
The spreading of liquid nanodroplets of different initial radii is studied using molecular dynamics simulation. Results for two distinct systems, Pb on Cu(111), which is no…
Spreading Dynamics of Polymer Nanodroplets in Cylindrical Geometries
David R. Heine, Gary S. Grest, Edmund B. Webb
The spreading of one- and two-component polymer nanodroplets is studied using molecular dynamics simulation in a cylindrical geometry. The droplets consist of polymer chains of len…
