We briefly discuss an arch-like structure that forms and grows during the rapid straightening of a chain lying on a table. This short note accompanies a fluid dynamics video submission (V029) to the APS DFD Gallery of Fluid Motion 2011.
A method for evaluating finite trigonometric summations is applied to a system of N coupled oscillators under acceleration. Initial motion of the nth particle is shown to be of the order ${{T}^{2n+2}}$ for small time T and the end particle…
Steady, dihedrally symmetric patterns with sharp peaks may be observed on a spinning skirt, lagging behind the material flow of the fabric. These qualitative features are captured with a minimal model of traveling waves on an inextensible,…
We consider the motion of a Brownian particle in $\mathbb{R}$, moving between a particle fixed at the origin and another moving deterministically away at slow speed $\epsilon>0$. The middle particle interacts with its neighbours via a…
This paper discusses the elastic behavior of a single polyelectrolyte chain. A simple scaling analysis as in self avoiding walk chains are not possible, because three interplaying relevant length scales are involved, i.e., the Debye…
We performed a series of simulations for a linear polymer chain in a solvent using dissipative particle dynamics to check the scaling relations for the end-to-end distance, radius of gyration and hydrodynamic radius in three dimensions. The…
In this brief report, we revisit analytical calculation [Mishra, {\it et al.}, Physica A {\bf 323} (2003) 453 and Mishra, NewYork Sci. J. {\bf{3(1)}} (2010) 32.] of the persistent length of a semiflexible homopolymer chain in %the extremely…
The presence of ordered structures such as helices in collapsed states of polymer chains is still an open question challenging physics and biology. In this work, we present a potential model for polymer chains with monomers that are not…
The study by Glauber of the time-dependent statistics of the Ising chain is extended to the case where each spin is influenced unequally by its nearest neighbours. The asymmetry of the dynamics implies the failure of the detailed balance…
In this study, we have comprehensively investigated the scaling law for elastic properties of three-dimensional honeycomb-like graphenes (3D-graphenes) using hybrid neural network potential based molecular dynamics simulations and…
We study a system of hard-core particles sliding downwards on a fluctuating one-dimensional surface which is characterized by a dynamical exponent $z$. In numerical simulations, an initially random particle density is found to coarsen and…
We experimentally study compression of thin plates in rectangular boxes with variable height. A cascade of buckling is generated. It gives rise to a self-similar evolution of elastic reaction of plates with box height which surprisingly…
We consider scalar-tensor theories of gravity in an accelerating universe. The equations for the background evolution and the perturbations are given in full generality for any parametrization of the Lagrangian, and we stress that apparent…
Gravitational properties of a hedge-hog type topological defect in two extra dimensions are considered in General Relativity employing a vector as the order parameter. All previous considerations were done using the order parameter in the…
Conformations of partially or fully adsorbed semiflexible polymer chains are studied varying both contour length $L$, chain stiffness, $\kappa$, and the strength of the adsorption potential over a wide range. Molecular Dynamics simulations…
Random advection of Lagrangian tracer scalar field $\theta (t,x)$ by a one-dimensional, spatially smooth and short-correlated in time velocity field is considered. Scalar fluctuations are maintained by a source concentrated at the integral…
We study the dynamics of an inclined tensioned, heavy cable traveling with a constant speed in the vertical plane. The cable is modeled as a beam resisting bending and shear. The governing equation for the transverse in-plane vibrations of…
Sliding cable system with frictions is encountered in many engineering applications. Such system is typically characterized by existences of complex and varied motion states of different sliding nodes (pulleys), which leads to significant…
We consider the statistical mechanics of a full set of two-dimensional protein-like heteropolymers, whose thermodynamics is characterized by the coil-to-globular ($T_\theta$) and the folding ($T_f$) transition temperatures. For our model,…
Polymer chains undergoing a continuous adsorption-desorption transition are studied through extensive computer simulations. A three-dimensional self-avoiding walk lattice model of a polymer chain grafted onto a surface has been treated for…
