Surface anchoring on liquid crystalline polymer brushes [PDF]
, 2002 We present a Monte Carlo study of the surface anchoring of a nematic fluid on swollen layers of grafted liquid crystalline chain molecules. The liquid crystalline particles are modeled by soft repulsive ellipsoids, and the chains are made of the same ...

Compatible Graft Establishment in Fruit Trees and Its Potential Markers
Agronomy, 2022 Plant grafting is a maneuver humans learned from nature and has been practiced since ancient times. The technique has long been applied for efficient propagation as well as for the modification of the traits of interest, such as stress tolerance, tree ...

Structural investigations of poly(ethylene terephthalate)- graft-polystyrene copolymer films [PDF]
, 2001 Structural investigations of poly(ethylene terephthalate)-graft-polystyrene (PET-g-PS) films prepared by radiation-induced grafting of styrene onto commercial poly- (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films were carried out by FTIR, X-ray diffraction (XRD ...

Sliding friction between an elastomer network and a grafted polymer layer: the role of cooperative effects [PDF]
, 2004 We study the friction between a flat solid surface where polymer chains have been end-grafted and a cross-linked elastomer at low sliding velocity.

Hyperbolic ends with particles and grafting on singular surfaces [PDF]
, 2019 We prove that any 3-dimensional hyperbolic end with particles (cone singularities along infinite curves of anglesless than \pi) admits a unique foliation by constant Gauss curvature surfaces. Using a form of duality between hyperbolic ends with particles

Brushes of semiflexible polymers in equilibrium and under flow in super-hydrophobic regime [PDF]
, 2015 We performed molecular dynamics simulations to study equilibrium and flow properties of a liquid in a nano-channel with confining surfaces coated with a layer of grafted semiflexible polymers.
