Individual Molecular Dynamics of an Entangled Polyethylene Melt Undergoing Steady Shear Flow: Steady-State and Transient Dynamics
The startup and steady shear flow properties of an entangled, monodisperse polyethylene liquid (C1000H2002) were investigated via virtual experimentation using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics. The simulations revealed a multifaceted dynamical response of the liquid to the imposed flow field in whi...
