Helium scattering investigation of the structure of the Ge(100) surface above 600 K
The scattering of helium atoms from a Ge(100) surface has been studied at temperatures to within 110 K of the Ge melting point (1210 K). Although the elastic scattering is greatly attenuated as the te...

This work examines the constrained recoil after steady shear flow and the free recovery after steady elongational flow of monodisperse polymer melts. Calculations are performed in the framework of the Curtiss–Bird theory using both conventional numerical integrations and nonequilibrium Brownian dynamics. The latter approach is shown to have significant advantages, particularly at high shear or elongational rates. The predicted curves of recovery as a function of shear rate exhibit an unusual maximum for which several explanations are proposed.
