Extending a generic and fast coarse-grained molecular dynamics model to examine the mechanical behavior of grafted polymer nanocomposites: data set

<p>Abstract:<br> from [1]</p> <blockquote> <p>Polymer nanocomposites are an important class of materials for engineering applications due to their high versatility and good mechanical properties combined with low density. By directly attaching the polymer chains to the nanofillers, the so-called grafting, a better load transfer between matrix and filler is achieved, and, in addition, a better dispersion of the fillers is obtained. Both result in enhanced mechanical properties. Since experimental investigations on the nanoscale are extremely challenging, complementary numerical studies are needed to unravel the mechanical behavior of polymer nanocomposites. To this end, molecular dynamics is ideally suited since it captures the microstructure, but is also numerically expensive. Therefore, this contribution presents a fast coarse-grained molecular dynamics model for the investigation of the mechanical behavior of grafted polymer nanocomposites. For this purpose, we extend an existing model by grafting bonds, which allows us to compare the effect of untreated and grafted fillers directly. In particular, we investigate the influence of filler content, grafting degree, and filler size on the stiffness and strength of the polymer (grafted) nanocomposites. We conclude that the grafting bonds have little effect on the stiffness, while the strength is significantly improved compared to the untreated fillers, which is in agreement with the literature. The presented molecular dynamics model for polymer grafted nanocomposites provides the basis for further investigations, particularly of the crucial matrix-filler interphase. In addition, this contribution translates molecular dynamics insights into mechanical properties, which bridges the gap to the engineering scale and thus represents a step towards exploiting the full potential of polymer (grafted) nanocomposites.</p> </blockquote> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Contact:</strong></p> <p>Maximilian Ries<br> Institute of Applied Mechanics<br> Friedrich-Alexander-Universit&auml;t Erlangen-N&uuml;rnberg<br> Egerlandstr. 5<br> 91058 Erlangen</p> <p><strong>Software:</strong></p> <p>All MD simulations were performed with LAMMPS [2,3], version: 29 Oct 2020 / 20201029</p> <p>Compiled with<br> Compiler: GNU C++ 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-39) with OpenMP not enabled<br> C++ standard: C++11</p> <p>Active compile time flags:<br> -DLAMMPS_GZIP<br> -DLAMMPS_SMALLBIG</p> <p>Installed packages:<br> CLASS2, KSPACE, MANYBODY, MC, MOLECULE, MPIIO, OPT, VORONOI, USER-INTEL, USER-MISC, USER-MOLFILE, USER-NETCD</p> <p>Polymer and polymer composite samples generated with self-avoiding random-walk algorithm [4]</p> <p>Post-processing Matlab R2019b</p> <p><strong>License:</strong></p> <p>Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International</p> <p><strong>Context:</strong></p> <p>Data set supplementing&nbsp; journal paper:</p> <p>[1] M.

Stage-mediated priority effects and season lengths shape long-term competition dynamics

<p>The relative arrival time of species can affect their interactions and thus determine which species persist in a community. Although this phenomenon, called priority effect, is widespread in natural communities, it is unclear how it depends on the length of growing season. Using a seasonal stage-structured model, we show that differences in stages of interacting species could generate priority effects by altering the strength of stabilizing and equalizing coexistence mechanisms, changing outcomes between exclusion, coexistence, and positive frequency dependence. However, these priority effects are strongest in systems with just one or a few generations per season and diminish in systems where many overlapping generations per season dilute the importance of stage-specific interactions. Our model reveals a novel link between the number of generations in a season and the consequences of priority effects, suggesting that consequences of phenological shifts driven by climate change should depend on specific life histories of organisms.</p>

Data and code: Assessing fish-fishery dynamics from a spatially explicit metapopulation perspective reveals winners and losers in fisheries management

<ol> <li><span>Sustainable management of living resources must reconcile biodiversity conservation and socioeconomic viability of human activities. In the case of fisheries, sustainable management design is made challenging by the complex spatiotemporal interactions between fish and fisheries.</span></li> <li><span>We develop a comprehensive metapopulation framework integrating data on species life-history traits, connectivity and habitat distribution to identify priority areas for fishing regulation and assess how management impacts are spatially distributed. We trial this approach on European hake fisheries in the north-western Mediterranean, where we assess area-based management scenarios in terms of stock status and fishery productivity to prioritize areas for protection. </span></li> <li><span>Model simulations show that local fishery closures have the potential to enhance both spawning stock biomass and landings on a regional scale compared to a status quo scenario, but that improving protection is easier than increasing productivity. Moreover, the interaction between metapopulation dynamics and the redistribution of fishing effort following local closures implies that benefits and drawbacks are heterogeneously distributed in space, the former being concentrated in the proximity of the protected site. </span></li> <li><span>A network analysis shows that priority areas for protection are those with the highest connectivity (as expressed by network metrics) if the objective is to improve the spawning stock, while no significant relationship emerges between connectivity and potential for increased landings.</span></li> <li> <span><em>Synthesis and applications</em> – </span><span>Our framework provides a tool for 1) assessing area-based management measures aimed at improving fisheries outcomes in terms of both conservation and socioeconomic viability and 2) describing the spatial distribution of costs and benefits, which can help guide effective management and gain stakeholder support. Adult dispersal remains the main source of uncertainty that needs to be investigated to effectively apply our model to fisheries regulation.</span> </li> </ol>

Data from: Urbanization alters the spatiotemporal dynamics of plant-pollinator networks in a tropical megacity

<p><span>Urbanization is a major driver of biodiversity change but how it interacts with spatial and temporal gradients to influence the dynamics of plant-pollinator networks is poorly understood, especially in tropical urbanization hotspots. Here, we analyzed the drivers of environmental, spatial, and temporal turnover of plant-pollinator interactions (interaction β-diversity) along an urbanization gradient in Bengaluru, a South Indian megacity. The compositional turnover of plant-pollinator interactions differed more between seasons and with local urbanization intensity than with spatial distance, suggesting that seasonality and environmental filtering were more important than dispersal limitation for explaining plant-pollinator interaction β-diversity. Furthermore, urbanization amplified the seasonal dynamics of plant-pollinator interactions, with stronger temporal turnover in urban compared to rural sites, driven by greater turnover of native non-crop plant species (not managed by people). Our study demonstrates that environmental, spatial, and temporal gradients interact to shape the dynamics of plant-pollinator networks and urbanization can strongly amplify these dynamics. </span></p>

Numerical response of predator to prey: Dynamic interactions and population cycles in Eurasian lynx and roe deer

<p>The dynamic interactions between predators and their prey have two fundamental processes; numerical and functional responses. Numerical response is defined as predator growth rate as a function of prey density or both prey and predator densities [dP/dt = f(N, P)]. Functional response is defined as the kill rate by an individual predator being a function of prey density or prey and predator densities combined. Although there are relatively many studies on the functional response in mammalian predators, numerical response remains poorly documented. We studied numerical response of Eurasian lynx (<em>Lynx lynx</em>) to various densities of its primary prey species, roe deer (<em>Capreolus</em> <em>capreolus</em>), and to itself (lynx). We exploited an unusual natural situation, spanning three decades where lynx, after a period of absence in central and southern Sweden, during which roe deer populations had grown to high densities, subsequently recolonized region after region, from north to south. We divided the study area into seven regions, with increasing productivity from north to south. We found strong effects of both roe deer density and lynx density on lynx numerical response. Thus, both resources and intraspecific competition for these resources are important to understand the lynx population dynamic. We built a series of deterministic lynx–roe deer models and applied them to the seven regions. We found a very good fit between these Lotka-Volterra-type models and the data. The deterministic models produced almost cyclic dynamics or dampened cycles in five of the seven regions. Thus, we documented population cycles in this large-predator-large-herbivore system, which is rarely done. The amplitudes in the dampened cycles decreased towards the south. Thus, the dynamics between lynx and roe deer became more stable with increasing carrying capacity for roe deer, which is related to higher productivity in the environment. This increased stability could be explained by variation in predation risk, where human presence can act as prey refugia, and by a more diverse prey guild that will weaken the direct interaction between lynx and roe deer.</p>

Host-pathogen interactions under pressure: a review and meta-analysis of stress-mediated effects on disease dynamics

<p>Human activities have increased the intensity and frequency of natural stressors and created novel stressors, altering host-pathogen interactions, and changing the risk of emerging infectious diseases. Despite the ubiquity of such anthropogenic impacts, predicting the directionality of outcomes has proven challenging. Here, we conduct a review and meta-analysis to determine the primary mechanisms through which stressors affect host-pathogen interactions and to evaluate the impacts stress has on host fitness (survival and fecundity) and pathogen infectivity (prevalence and intensity). We assessed 891 effect sizes from 71 host species (representing seven taxonomic groups) and 78 parasite taxa from 98 studies. We found that infected and uninfected hosts had similar sensitivity to stressors and that responses varied according to stressor type. Specifically, limited resources compromised host fecundity and decreased pathogen intensity, while abiotic environmental stressors (e.g., temperature and salinity) decreased host survivorship and increased pathogen intensity, and pollution increased mortality but decreased pathogen prevalence. We then used our meta-analysis results to develop Susceptible-Infected theoretical models to illustrate scenarios where infection rates are expected to increase or decrease in response to resource limitation or environmental stress gradients. Our results carry implications for conservation and disease emergence and reveal areas for future work.  </p>

Please refer to the following paper for experimentation details and process parameters: &quot;<em>Jin, S., A. Iquebal, S. Bukkapatnam, A. Gaynor, and Y. Ding (2019, 10). A gaussian process model-guided surface polishing process in additive manufacturing. Journal of Manufacturing Science and Engineering 142, 1&ndash;17.</em>&quot;</p> <p><strong>2. Initial_surface_generation.m</strong>&nbsp;- Script containing the Initial surface generation algorithm using the random circle packing algorithm. This file generates the surface asperity distribution and their graph connectivity of a 3D printed sample prior to polishing (Figure 4(b) in paper). One such realization is stored and compared with experimental data (Refer #3).</p> <p><strong>3. Stage0_fitted_data.mat</strong>&nbsp;- .mat file containing data pertaining to height measures of the 3D printed sample prior to polishing and generated initial surface (simulation) which is statistically similar to the actual data.</p> <p><strong>4. Parameter_fitting_Polishing.m</strong>&nbsp;- Script containing the model capturing polishing dynamics with network formation, evaluated at each stage of polishing. This file generates the Bearing Area Curves of the initial surface simulated after each stage of polishing and compares with experimental data (Figures 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 in paper). (The script makes use of other functions defined in #5).</p> <p><strong>5. surface_roughness.m, graph_evolution.m, solve_for_d.m, KLDiv.m</strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Gen_hurst.m</strong>&nbsp;- Matlab scripts containing functions that are called within the main script (Parameter_fitting_Polishing.m)</p> <p><strong>6. Simulated_Annealing.zip</strong>&nbsp;- Zip file containing files related to Simulated Annealing Algorithm. Please read the&nbsp;<strong>README_Simulated_Annealing.txt</strong>&nbsp;for instructions to reproduce the optimized parameter solutions.</p> <p><strong>7. pub_fig.m</strong>&nbsp;- Script containing the formatting options for plots and figures.</p>
