Preparation and self-assembly behavior of polystyrene-block-poly (dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) amphiphilic block copolymer using atom transfer radical polymerization

“…Transmission electron microscopy results suggest that asymmetric block copolymer PS62-b-PDMAEMA3 (the numbers in the form of footnotes represent repeated units of each monomer in the copolymer) can form spherical core-shell micelles, large compound reverse micelles (LCRMs), hexagonal/rhombic phases, reverse hexagonal/rhombic phases, vesicles, reverse vesicles and necklace-like reverse micelles, controlled by common or selective solvent and pH, while most of the aggregates of semi-symmetric PS62-b-PDMAEMA47 are simply spherical, such as spherical core-shell micelles and reverse spherical core-shell micelles, besides hexagonal/rhombic phases. …”

Isogeometric analysis of the lithosphere under topographic loading: Igalith v1.0.0 by R. Rosandi, Y. Rosandi, B. Simeon

“…We also perform parameter identification for the effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere, the rock density, and the topographic load that are most plausible to explain the measured depths. An example of simulating the entire lithosphere of the Earth as a spherical shell using multi-patch isogeometric analysis is presented, providing an alternative to spherical harmonics for solving partial differential equations on a spherical domain. …”
