Coupled matrix-based Monte Carlo to unravel complex polymerization kinetics

(06-04-2021)

The strength of coupled matrix-based Monte Carlo to support the fundamental understanding of complex polymerization kinetics is highlighted in a cover article in React. Chem. Eng. The Monte Carlo platform has been developed at LCT. Benchmarking of this platform has been done in collaboration with PeLab at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The involved LCT coauthors are Freddy L. Figueira, Paul H.M. Van Steenberge and Dagmar R. D’hooge.
