Development of bead-spring polymer models using the constant extension ensemble
We have examined a new method for generating coarse-grained models of polymers. The resulting models consist of bead-spring chains with the spring force law taken from the force-extension behavior in the constant extension ensemble. This method, called the polymer ensemble transformation method, is applied to the freely jointed chain. The resulting model illustrates why current bead-spring chai...
متن کاملDeterministic Simulation of Multi-Beaded Models of Dilute Polymer Solutions
We study the convergence of a nonlinear approximation method introduced in the engineering literature for the numerical solution of a high-dimensional Fokker– Planck equation featuring in Navier–Stokes–Fokker–Planck systems that arise in kinetic models of dilute polymers. To do so, we build on the analysis carried out recently by Le Bris, Lelièvre and Maday (Const. Approx. 30: 621–651, 2009) in...
متن کاملAlternative spring force law for bead-spring chain models of the worm-like chain
e have developed a new spring force law which can be used in bead-spring chain models of the orm-like chain. The bead-spring chain has no bending potentials between the springs, and so iffers from the current models only in the functional form of the force law. This new model can ccurately represent a chain that contains many persistence lengths even if each spring represents nly a few persiste...
متن کاملMulti-modal particle manipulator to enhance bead-based bioassays.
By sequentially pushing micro-beads towards and away from a sensing surface, we show that ultrasonic radiation forces can be used to enhance the interaction between a functionalised glass surface and polystyrene micro-beads, and identify those that bind to the surface by illuminating bound beads using an evanescent field generated by guided light. The movement towards and immobilisation of stre...
متن کاملPhysical interpretation of coarse-grained bead-spring models of complex fluids
Bulk properties and morphology of block copolymers and polymer blends are highly sensitive to processing history due to small free energy differences among various stable and metastable states. Consequently, modeling these materials requires accounting for both thermal fluctuations and non-equilibrium processes. This has proven to be challenging with traditional approaches of energy minimizatio...
