Abstract:

The network structure within polymers significantly influences their mechanical properties, including their strength, toughness, and fatigue resistance. All-atom molecular dynamics (AAMD) simulations offer a method to investigate the energy dissipation mechanism within polymers during deformation and fracture; Such an approach is, however, computationally inefficient when used to analyze polymers with complex network structures, such as the common chemically double-networked hydrogels. Alternatively, coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) models, which reduce the computational degrees of freedom by concentrating a set of adjacent atoms into a coarse-grained bead, can be employed. In CGMD simulations, a coarse-grained force field (CGFF) is a critical factor affecting the simulation accuracy. In this paper, we proposed a data-based method for predicting the CGFF parameters to improve the simulation efficiency of complex cross-linked network in polymers. Here, we utilized a typical chemically double-networked hydrogel as an example. An artificial neural network was selected, and it was trained with the tensile stress-strain data from the CGMD simulations using different CGFF parameters. The CGMD simulations using the predicted CGFF parameters show good agreement with the AAMD simulations and are almost fifty times faster. The data-inspired CGMD model presented here broadens the applicability of molecular dynamics simulations to cross-linked polymers and has the potential to provide insights that will aid the design of polymers with desirable mechanical properties. © 2024 2024 Author(s).
