Compression and Stretching of Confined Linear and Ring Polymers by Applying Force
We use Langevin dynamics to study the deformations of linear and ring polymers in different confinements by applying compression and stretching forces on their two sides. Our results show that the compression deformations are the results of an interplay among of polymer rigidity, degree of confineme...
