Summary on Grant Application Form |
Application of constant stress molecular dynamics to study the ways in which mechanical properties (such as stiffness and yield) and the glass transformation process in amorphous polymers are linked to microscopic properties such as chain composition, length and flexibility. In addition we wish to explore the application of the techniques to study mechanical properties at polymer interfaces.
