Self-consistent field theories for complex fluids
Recent developments in off-lattice self-consistent field theories for inhomogeneous complex fluids are reviewed. Particular emphasis is given to the treatment of intermolecular interactions and compressibility, to the role of fluctuations, and to the discussion of the coarse-graining length which is inherent to the theory. Valuable insight can be gained from the comparison of self-consistent fi...
متن کاملMicelle shape transitions in block copolymer/homopolymer blends: comparison of self-consistent field theory with experiment.
Diblock copolymers blended with homopolymer may self-assemble into spherical, cylindrical, or lamellar aggregates. Transitions between these structures may be driven by varying the homopolymer diblock molecular weight or composition. Using self-consistent field theory (SCFT), we reproduce these effects. Our results are compared to x-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy measuremen...
متن کاملMicelle formation in block copolymer/homopolymer blends: comparison of self-consistent field theory with experiment and scaling theory
We present a self-consistent field theory (SCFT) study of spherical micelle formation in a blend of poly(styrene-butadiene) diblocks and homopolystyrene. The micelle core radii, corona thicknesses and critical micelle concentrations are calculated as functions of the polymer molecular weights and the composition of the diblocks. We then make a parameter free comparison of our results with an ea...
متن کاملStochastic Multiconfigurational Self-Consistent Field Theory.
The multiconfigurational self-consistent field theory is considered the standard starting point for almost all multireference approaches required for strongly correlated molecular problems. The limitation of the approach is generally given by the number of strongly correlated orbitals in the molecule, since its cost will grow exponentially with this number. We present a new multiconfigurational...
متن کاملModel Representation for Self - Consistent - Field Theory of Isotropic Turbulence
In this paper, Langevin model equation is proposed for Fourier modes of velocity field of isotropic turbulence whose statistical properties are identical to those governed by equations of Self-Consistent-Field (SCF) theory of turbulence [J. R. Herring, Physics of Fluids 9, 2106 (1966)].
