Entangled chain dynamics of polymer knots in extensional flow.
We formulate a coarse-grained molecular-dynamics model of polymer chains in solution that includes hydrodynamic interactions, thermal fluctuations, nonlinear elasticity, and topology-preserving solvent mediated excluded volume interactions. The latter involve a combination of potential forces with explicit geometric detection and tracking of chain entanglements. By solving this model with numer...
متن کاملA Multichain Slip-Spring Model with Fluctuating Number of Entanglements Based On Single-Chain Slip-Spring Model
We present a multichain slip-spring model with fluctuating number of entanglements for dynamics of dense polymer melts, which is based on the single chain slip-spring model by Likhtman. By introducing the exclude volume interactions, a multichain version of slip-spring model can be presented with little modification. With this extension, inhomogeneous polymer system can be described properly. T...
متن کاملConfinement Effects on Chain Dynamics and Local Chain Order in Entangled Polymer Melts
Introduction. Effects of nanometric confinement on polymer structure and dynamics have been in the focus for more than 15 years, primarily with the aim of providing the physical understanding for nanoscale polymer applications such as in composite materials. Changes in Tg are probably the most researched, but still controversial issue, with clear and intuitively expected indications of slowed-d...
متن کاملEntangled dynamics of a stiff polymer.
Entangled networks of stiff biopolymers exhibit complex dynamic response, emerging from the topological constraints that neighboring filaments impose upon each other. We propose a class of reference models for entanglement dynamics of stiff polymers and provide a quantitative foundation of the tube concept for stiff polymers. For an infinitely thin needle exploring a planar course of point obst...
