Heuristic Search Strategy for Transforming Microstructural Patterns to Optimal Copolymerization Recipes
Mohammadi, Yousef; Saeb, Mohammad Reza; Penlidis, Alexander (Wiley, 2018-03-12)Manipulation and optimization of copolymer microstructure for tailoring final properties is of great importance in macromolecular science and engineering. Uncovering the complexities of the interrelationships between ... -
Intelligent Monte Carlo: A new paradigm for inverse polymerization engineering
Mohammadi, Yousef; Saeb, Mohammad Reza; Penlidis, Alexander; Jabbari, Esmaiel; Zinck, Philippe; Stadler, Florian; Matyjaszewski, Krzysztof (Wiley, 2018-05)Traditional computational methods simulate the microstructure of polymer chains from input reaction conditions, but a need exists for predicting optimum reaction conditions in a computationally-demanding multi-variable ... -
Molecular Architecture Manipulation in Free Radical Copolymerization: An Advanced Monte Carlo Approach to Screening Copolymer Chains with Various Comonomer Sequence Arrangements
Saeb, Mohammad Reza; Mohammadi, Yousef; Pakdel, Amir; Penlidis, Alexander (Wiley, 2016-07-01)A Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulation approach was adopted in this study to capture evolutionary events in the course of free radical copolymerization, through which batch and starved-feed semibatch processes were compared. ... -
‘Optimulation’ in Chemical Reaction Engineering: The Oxidative Coupling of Methane as a Case Study
Mohammadi, Yousef; Penlidis, Alexander (ACS, 2018-06-07)The optimization of reacting systems, including chemical, biological, and macromolecular reactions, is of great importance from both theoretical and practical standpoints. Even though several classical deterministic and ... -
Polymerization Data Mining: A Perspective
Mohammadi, Yousef; Penlidis, Alexander (Wiley, 2019-04-01)Nowadays, ‘Data mining’ is widely proposed by data scientists as the most accepted and powerful approach to properly handle the information explosion. Data mining is defined as the extraction of interesting patterns and ... -
Towards Olefin Multi-block Copolymers with Tailored Properties: A Molecular Perspective
Mohammadi, Yousef; Saeb, Mohammad Reza; Penlidis, Alexander; Jabbari, Esmaiel; Stadler, Florian; Zinck, Philippe; Vivaldo-Lima, Eduardo (Wiley, 2021-05)Recent progress in macromolecular reaction engineering has enabled the synthesis of sequence-controlled polymers. The advent of Olefin Block Copolymers (OBCs) via chain shuttling polymerization of ethylene with α-olefins ... -
Visualization of bivariate sequence length-chain length distribution in free radical copolymerization
Saeb, Mohammad Reza; Mohammadi, Yousef; Rastin, Hadi; Kermaniyan, Tayebeh Sadat; Penlidis, Alexander (Wiley, 2017-08)Copolymer properties and processability depend on copolymer microstructure, i.e., copolymer composition and monomer unit arrangements along copolymer chains. To predict ultimate properties of copolymers, one needs complete ...
