Elasticity of a Freely Jointed Chain with Quenched Disorder
Minsu Yi, Panayotis Benetatos
We introduce a simple theoretical model, the Freely Jointed Chain with quenched hinges (qFJC), which captures the quenched disorder in the local bending stiffness of the polymer. I…

Bending Elasticity of the reversible Freely Jointed Chain
Minsu Yi, Dongju Lee, Panayotis Benetatos
The freely jointed chain model with reversible hinges (rFJC) is the simplest theoretical model that captures reversible transitions of the local bending stiffness along the polymer…
