The second virial coefficient, B 2 is computed of linear rigid rods composed of m equally spaced sites interacting with sites on other rods via the hard-sphere or Weeks-Chandler-Andersen (WCA) pair potentials. The dependence of B 2 on a wide ran... Read More about Second virial coefficient of rod-shaped molecules and molecular dynamics simulations of the isotropic phase.

Shear wave dispersion in mechanically self-similar gel networks (1998)
Journal Article
Williams, P. R., & Williams, R. L. (1998). Shear wave dispersion in mechanically self-similar gel networks. Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 31(9), 1083

A study of viscoelastic shear wave dispersion in a simulated gelation process involving mechanically self-similar nodal networks is reported. The network formed at the gel point (the infinite network cluster, or `critical gel') shares a common struct... Read More about Shear wave dispersion in mechanically self-similar gel networks.

A modified form of the Gross-Marvin ladder model is used to simulate gelation processes in which α, the viscoelastic stress relaxation exponent in the Gel Equation, can be varied in the range O
