Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Chain Folding for Polyethylene Subjected to Vibration Excitation

We propose a molecular dynamics method with vibration excitation, named as VEMD, to investigate the vibration effect on chain folding for polymer molecule. The VEMD method is based on the introduction of periodic force, the amplitude and frequency of which can be adjusted, and the method was applied...
