15 صفحه اولNon-monotonic dependence of the friction coefficient on heterogeneous stiffness
The complexity of the frictional dynamics at the microscopic scale makes difficult to identify all of its controlling parameters. Indeed, experiments on sheared elastic bodies have shown that the static friction coefficient depends on loading conditions, the real area of contact along the interfaces and the confining pressure. Here we show, by means of numerical simulations of a 2D Burridge-Kno...
متن کاملChain Length Dependence on Folding Transition of a Semiflexible Homo-Polymer Chain: Appearance of a Core-Shell Structure
The folding transition of single, long semiflexible polymers was studied with special emphasis on the chain length effect using Monte Carlo simulations. While a relatively short chain (10-25 Kuhn segments) undergoes a large discrete transition between swollen coil and compact toroid conformations, a long chain (50 Kuhn segments) exhibits an intrachain segregated state between the disordered coi...
متن کاملAtomic force microscopy of chromatin arrays reveal non-monotonic salt dependence of array compaction in solution
Compaction of DNA in chromatin is a hallmark of the eukaryotic cell and unravelling its structure is required for an understanding of DNA involving processes. Despite strong experimental efforts, many questions concerning the DNA packing are open. In particular, it is heavily debated whether an ordered structure referred to as the "30 nm fibre" exist in vivo. Scanning probe microscopy has becom...
متن کاملA pr 1 99 6 Chain length dependence of the polymer - solvent critical point parameters
We report grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of the critical point properties of homopolymers within the Bond Fluctuation model. By employing Configurational Bias Monte Carlo methods, chain lengths of up to N = 60 monomers could be studied. For each chain length investigated, the critical point parameters were determined by matching the ordering operator distribution function to its univer...
