The Effects of Molecular Structure and Design on the Plasticizer Performance Through Coarse-Grained Molecular Simulation
… system. The overall understanding of finite-size effects shows: as additive of increasing size is added, the polymer free volume increases which in-turn would decrease the Y, but Tg is shown to increase because the polymer and additive are not as mobile to reduce caging effect of monomeric units.

Structure and Dynamics of Associative Polymer Gels
… and time scales, with the goal of understanding effects of key molecular parameters on their macroscopic behavior. The first part of this thesis studied molecular relaxation and self-diffusion of a model associative network formed by artificial coiled-coil proteins with a well-defined …

Interacting Stochastic Processes: from Viciousness to Caging to Force Chains
… while the second, which is due to a caging, or crowding, effect at high densities, appears to be continuous and in a new universality from what is known as conserved directed percolation. The latter transition may have implications for the onset of glassiness in dense, particulate …
