This Letter reports experimental and numerical results on particle dynamics in an out-of-equilibrium granular medium. We observed two distinct types of grain motion: the well known cage motion, during which a grain is always surrounded by the same neighbors, and low probability "jumps," during which a grain moves sign…

This paper applies the density functional theory to confined liquid crystals comprising ellipsoidal shaped particles interacting through the hard Gaussian overlap (HGO) potential. The restricted orientation model proposed by Rickayzen [Mol. Phys. 95, 393 (1998)] is extended to study the surface anchoring. The excess f…

Abstract Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) based blends were obtained by melt blending PET with up to 30 wt% poly(ethylene‐octene) either modified with maleic anhydride (mLLDPE) or not (LLDPE). Both PET/LLDPE and PET/mLLDPE blends were immiscible. The dispersed phase particle size was large in LLDPE blends, but upon…
