Multiscale Modeling of the Deformation of Semi-Crystalline Polymers

The mechanical and physical properties of polymers are determined primarily by the underlying nano-scale structures and characteristics such as entanglements, crystallites, and molecular orientation. These structures evolve in complex manners during the processing of polymers into useful articles....
