Controlling chemical oscillations in heterogeneous Belousov-Zhabotinsky gels via mechanical strain
We performed theoretical and computational studies to determine the effect of an applied mechanical strain on the dynamic behavior of heterogeneous polymer gels undergoing the oscillatory Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction. In these spatially heterogeneous gels, the catalyst for the reaction is loca...
