Physics of complex fluids: Ring polymers show unexpected motion patterns under shear

Reyhaneh Farimani, University of Vienna, and her colleagues showed that for the simplest case of connected ring pairs, the type of linkage - chemically bonded vs. mechanically linked - has profound effects on the dynamic properties under continuous shear. [...] The current study was conducted by a scientific cooperation between the University of Vienna, the Sharif University of Technology in Iran and the International School of Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Italy.
