Deformation of solutions

The structural changes during deformation of solution- and gel-spun PAN/CNT nanocomposite fibers were also investigated by using synchrotron X-ray diffraction [129]. The deformation of CNTs is shown to contribute to the increased modulus. CNTs, in addition... 

SRD appears to be a very promising (rather new) approach for future NEMD simulations, as it is a very efficient mesoscale technique. It reflects the characteristic shear deformation of solute macromolecules, for example, for shear flows of star polymers [180] or DNA molecules [181].
