Morphology and properties evolution upon ring-opening polymerization during extrusion of cyclic butylene terephthalate and graphene-related-materials into thermally conductive nanocomposites [PDF]
In this work, the study of thermal conductivity before and after in-situ ring-opening polymerization of cyclic butylene terephthalate into poly (butylene terephthalate) in presence of graphene-related materials (GRM) is addressed, to gain insight in the ...

On consistent gauge fixing conditions in polymerized gravitational systems [PDF]
For classical gravitational systems the lapse function and the shift vector are usually determined by imposing appropriate gauge fixing conditions and then demanding their preservation with respect to the dynamics generated by a canonical Hamiltonian.

The Shape of the Polymerization Rate in the Prion Equation [PDF]
We consider a polymerization (fragmentation) model with size-dependent parameters involved in prion proliferation. Using power laws for the different rates of this model, we recover the shape of the polymerization rate using experimental data. The technique used is inspired from an article of Zampieri et al.

Flat polymerized membranes at three-loop order [PDF]
In this conference report, we present a recent field theoretic renormalization group analysis of flat polymerized membranes at three-loop order by the present authors [Phys. Rev. E 105, L012603 (2022)].
