High-Performance Macromolecular Materials

Abstract

The major accomplishments from this contract consist of new theoretical models for nano-rod and nano-platelet hydrodynamics, new algorithms for simulations of benchmark experiments and processing flows, new defect detection and tracking diagnostics, and the applications of each of these developments to understanding of these novel material systems and their flow-processing properties. The publications resulting from this contract can fairly be characterized as the state-of-the-art in the theory, modeling, simulations and behavior of nano-rod and nano-platelet dispersions.
