Ja n 20 05 Universal scaling behavior of non - equilibrium phase transitions Sven Lübeck
Non-equilibrium critical phenomena have attracted a lot of research interest in the recent decades. Similar to equilibrium critical phenomena, the concept of universality remains the major tool to order the great variety of non-equilibrium phase transitions systematically. All systems belonging to a given universality class share the same set of critical exponents, and certain scaling functions...
متن کاملNon-linear elastic behavior of filler aggregates
A filled rubber network consists of polymer chains which are suspended between filler aggregates. In this contribution, the nonlinear elastic behavior of the aggregated filler particles inside the rubber matrix is investigated. Previously, by using scaling theory, the influence of initial length and fractal dimension of aggregates on the elastic response of aggregated structures was studied. He...
متن کاملElastic models of conformational transitions in macromolecules.
We develop a computationally efficient and physically realistic method to simulate the transition of a macromolecule between two conformations. Our method is based on a coarse-grained elastic network model in which contact interactions between spatially proximal parts of the macromolecule are modelled with Gaussian/harmonic potentials. To delimit the interactions in such models, we introduce a ...
متن کاملNon–equilibrium relaxation of an elastic string in random media
We study the relaxation of an elastic string in a two dimensional pinning landscape using Langevin dynamics simulations. The relaxation of a line, initially flat, is characterized by a growing length, L(t), separating the equilibrated short length scales from the flat long distance geometry that keep memory of the initial condition. We find that, in the long time limit, L(t) has a non–algebraic...
