USA-Bulgaria Cooperative Research in Computer Simulations of Polydisperse Systems

这项美国-保加利亚合作研究奖的主题是“多分散聚合物系统的计算机模拟”。主要研究人员是乔治亚大学的David P. Landau博士和保加利亚科学院物理化学研究所的Andrey I. Milchev博士。研究人员将结合他们的专业知识，进行大规模的蒙特卡罗模拟，以研究广泛类别的“软”凝聚态物质系统的静态和动态行为，通常被称为“活聚合物”。他们将特别强调理解模型系统在受限几何形状和剪切流动条件下的行为。这项应用凝聚态物理的研究实现了将美国和保加利亚的顶尖专家聚集在一起的项目目标，在平等、互惠和互利的基础上，在共同感兴趣和能力强的领域结合互补的努力和能力。* * * ? ?

INT-9604831 Landau This U.S.-Bulgarian Cooperative Research award is on "Computer Simulations of Polydisperse Polymer Systems." The principal researchers are Dr. David P. Landau of the University of Georgia, and Dr. Andrey I. Milchev of the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. The researchers will combine their expertise to perform large scale Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the static and dynamic behavior of polydisperse systems of a broad class of "soft" condensed matter systems generally known as "living polymers." They will place particular emphasis on understanding the behavior of model systems in confined geometries and under conditions of shear flow. This research in applied condensed matter physics fulfills the program objectives of bringing together leading experts in the U.S. and Bulgaria to combine complementary efforts and capabilities in areas of strong mutual interest and competence on the basis of equality, reciprocity, and mutuality of benefit. *** ??
