Free expansion of elastic filaments.
The dynamics of an elastic polymer filament undergoing contour length expansion is studied using computer simulation. The expansion occurs by development of transverse buckling waves that grow through a coarsening process. The growing buckles locally organize into a helical structure with a characteristic persistence length. The helical domain boundaries are eliminated from the relaxing structu...
متن کاملA symplectic integration method for elastic filaments.
A new method is proposed for integrating the equations of motion of an elastic filament. In the standard finite-difference and finite-element formulations the continuum equations of motion are discretized in space and time, but it is then difficult to ensure that the Hamiltonian structure of the exact equations is preserved. Here we discretize the Hamiltonian itself, expressed as a line integra...
متن کاملAlgorithm Refinement for Fluctuating Hydrodynamics
This paper introduces an adaptive mesh and algorithm refinement method for fluctuating hydrodynamics. This particle-continuum hybrid simulates the dynamics of a compressible fluid with thermal fluctuations. The particle al-
متن کاملWorm algorithm for continuous-space path integral monte carlo simulations.
We present a new approach to path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations based on the worm algorithm, originally developed for lattice models and extended here to continuous-space many-body systems. The scheme allows for efficient computation of thermodynamic properties, including winding numbers and off-diagonal correlations, for systems of much greater size than that accessible to convention...
متن کاملHelicity Modulus and Fluctuating Type II Superconductors: Elastic Approximation and Numerical Simulations
We develop the helicity modulus as a criterion for superconducting order in the mixed phase of a fluctuating type II superconductor. We show that there is a duality relation between this helicity modulus and the superfluid density of a system of analog 2D bosons. We show that the vortex line lattice exhibits a perfect Meissner effect with respect to a shearing perturbation of the applied magnet...
