Title Prediction of the linear viscoelastic shear modulus of an entangled polybutadiene melt from simulation and theory
Date 2000
Description While accurate quantum chemistry based potentials,1 improved simulation algorithms, and faster computers have made accurate calculation of chain dynamics in unentangled polymer melts from molecular dynamics simulations possible,2-5 direct calculation of the viscoelastic properties of entangled polymers remains well beyond the capability of even the most powerful computers.
