Crosslinker energy landscape effects on dynamic mechanical properties of ideal polymer hydrogels by Khare, Eesha, de Alcântara, Amadeus C. S., Lee, Nic, Skaf, Munir S., Buehler, Markus J.

“…We report that, for an ideal network, the energy potential of the crosslinker interaction drives the viscosity of the network, where a stronger potential results in a higher viscosity. Additional topographical analyses reveal a mechanistic understanding of the structural rearrangement of the network as it deforms and indicate that as the number of defects increases in the network, the viscosity of the network increases. …”

Analysis and mitigation of spatial integration errors for the material point method by Baumgarten, Aaron S., Kamrin, Ken

“…The material point method (MPM) is a robust numerical simulation approach for continuum mechanics problems involving large material deformations coupled to changing surface topographies. These types of problems are present in many different engineering contexts, from understanding the failure processes of earthen slopes to predicting the strengths and failure mechanisms of body armor to modeling the impact forces of waves in fluid tanks. …”
