Test PolyFTS with Polyorder
We will verify the PolyFTS calculation by comparing to the Polyorder results. The SCFT model we will test is miktoarm star block copolymer and homopolymer blends (AB3 + A).
Polyorder Configuration File
The configuration file for Polyorder can be either in INI or in YAML format. Sample configuration files can be found in the example folder in the Polyorder project.
Simpson's Rule and Other Fourth-Order Quadrature Formulas
In this post we will list some popular closed-, open-, and semi-open form of numerical integration formulas for Simpson’s rule and other 4th order algorithms.
mpltex: A Tool for Creating Publication Quality Plots
This post serves as a tutorial to the mpltex Python package, a tool for producing publication quality plots using matplotlib.LaTeX formatting for axis titles, legends, and texts in the figure is supported.The internal matplotlib color cycle is replaced by Tableau classic 10 color scheme...
A Quick Guide to the Self-Consistent Field Theory in Polymer Physics
In this post I will present an detailed (informal) derivation of the self-consistent field theory (SCFT) for many-chain polymer systems. I start from the continuous Gaussian chain model. Then the Gaussian chain in an external field is described. After that, a system of multiple...
