In this Review, we present a critical analysis of various applications of the Flory-type theories
to a theoretical description of the conformational behavior of single polymer chains in dilute …

Polymer band gap is one of the most important properties associated with electric
conductivity. In this work, the machine learning model called support vector regression …

The stretching of a single dipolar chain by a tensile force acting on the chain end is studied
using molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical considerations. In both theory and …

In recent years, substantial advancements have been achieved in augmenting the energy
efficiency of hydraulic fluids through the integration of polymers. This study employs a …

We perform extensive molecular dynamics simulations of a charged polymer in a good
solvent in the regime where the chain is collapsed. We analyze the dependence of the …

The effect of an interplay between electrostatic and excluded volume interactions on the
conformational behavior of a dipolar chain has been studied theoretically and by means of …

We perform extensive molecular dynamics simulations of a highly charged, collapsed,
flexible polyelectrolyte chain in a poor solvent for the case when the electrostatic …

We present a simple analytical theory of a flexible polymer chain dissolved in a good
solvent, carrying permanent freely oriented dipoles on the monomers. We take into account …

Theoretical models of the conformational behavior of flexible polymer chains in mixed
solvents enunciated in the world literature during the last decade are critically reviewed …

We present a new simple self-consistent field theory of a polarizable flexible polymer chain
under an external constant electric field with account for the many-body electrostatic dipole …
