Non-isothermal model for nematic spherulite growth.
A computational study of the growth of two-dimensional nematic spherulites in an isotropic phase was performed using a Landau-de Gennes-type quadrupolar tensor order parameter model for the first-order isotropic/nematic transition of 5CB (pentylcyanobiphenyl). An energy balance, taking anisotropy into account, was derived and incorporated into the time-dependent model. Growth laws were determin...
متن کاملThe Unity of Chemistry and Physics: Absolute Reaction Rate Theory
Henry Eyring’s absolute rate theory explains the size of chemical reaction rate constants in terms of thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and quantum chemistry. In addition it uses a number of unique concepts such as the ‘transition state’. A key feature of the theory is that the explanation it provides relies on the comparison of reaction rate constant expressions derived from these individ...
متن کاملFlory theory for polymers.
We review various simple analytical theories for homopolymers within a unified framework. The common guideline of our approach is the Flory theory, and its various avatars, with the attempt at being reasonably self-contained. We expect this review to be useful as an introduction to the topic at the graduate student level.
متن کاملTheory of directed polymers.
We develop a theory of polymers in a nematic solvent by exploiting an analogy with two-dimensional quantum bosons at zero temperature. We argue that the theory should also describe polymers in an isotropic solvent. The dense phase is analyzed in a Bogoliubovlike approximation, which assumes a broken symmetry in the phase of the boson order parameter. We find a stiffening of the longitudinal flu...
متن کاملGrowth rate, population entropy, and perturbation theory.
This paper is concerned with the connection between two classes of population variables: measures of population growth rate--the Malthusian parameter, the net reproduction rate, the gross reproduction rate, and the mean life expectancy; and measures of demographic heterogeneity--population entropy. It is shown that the entropy functions predict the response of the growth rate parameters to pert...
