The deformation behavior of semicrystalline polymers associated with polymorphic transformations under tensile deformation is discussed in the case of syndiotactic polypropylene. We report a phase diagram of this polymer where the regions of stability of the different polymorphic forms are defined as a function of the…

Organic metal-salt (lead dimethacrylate (Pb(MA)2)) nanofibers are prepared, and these Pb(MA)2 monomeric nanofibers are successfully converted into PbS nanoparticles/polymer composite nanofibers through the combined use of gamma-irradiated polymerization and gas/solid reaction. The resulting composite nanofibers have e…

The mechanical response of two-phase materials during plastic co-deformation is examined with a particular emphasis on the role of the internal stresses developed during deformation. A framework is developed to describe the accumulation of these internal stresses during plastic co-deformation in terms of a small numbe…

Using classical molecular dynamics and empirical potentials, we show that the axial deformation of single-walled carbon nanotubes is coupled to their torsion. The axial-strain-induced torsion is limited to chiral nanotubes-graphite sheets rolled around an axis that breaks its symmetry. Small strain behavior is consist…

Classical homogeneous nucleation theory has been integrated with molecular modeling techniques to model the effects of cluster shape-anisotropy associated with nucleation from solution. In this approach, the geometric shape of a crystal nucleus is modeled assuming it equates to the predicted growth morphology of the r…

In many magnetic materials, spin dynamics at short times are dominated by precessional motion as damping is relatively small. In the limit of no damping and no thermal noise, we show that for a large enough initial instability, an avalanche can transition to an ergodic phase where the state is equivalent to one at fin…
