Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Primitive chain network simulations for double peaks in shear stress under fast flows of bidisperse entangled polymers

arXiv:2404.14629v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: A few experiments have reported that the time development of shear stress under fast start-up shear deformations exhibits double peaks before reaching the steady state for bimodal blends of entangled linear polymers in specific conditions. To analyze the molecular origin of this phenomenon, multi-chain slip-link simulations based on the primitive chain network model were conducted for the data of a bimodal polystyrene solution reported by Osaki et al. [J Pol Sci B Pol Phys, 38, 2043 (2000)] Owing to the reasonable agreement with the data and the simulation results, the stress was decomposed into contributions from long and short-chain components and decoupled into segment number, stretch, and orientation. The analysis revealed that the first and second peaks correspond to the short-chain orientation and the long-chain stretch, respectively. The results also imply that the peak positions are not affected by the mixing of short and long chains, whereas the second peak intensity depends on the mixing conditions in a complicated manner, dominating the emergence of double peaks.
