Monte Carlo simulations of stress-induced polymer crystallization
ORAL
Abstract
We developed the previous approach of dynamic Monte Carlo simulations of bulk lattice polymers for strain-induced crystallization [1-3] by incorporating the stress relaxation, and investigated the competition between strain rate and stress relaxation rate. The results reproduce the basic experimental observations and promise a molecular-level understanding of stress-induced polymer crystallization via our new approach.
