We congratulate Jakob Seibert for publishing the results of his Bachelor’s thesis in a peer-reviewed paper in Mathematics and Mechanics of Solids. In his publication, “Investigation of the influence of nano-sized particles on the entanglement distribution of a generic polymer nanocomposite using molecular dynamics,” Jakob employs coarse-grained molecular dynamics to analyze the matrix-filler interphase in polymer nanocomposites.  To this end, he developed a methodology to characterize the interphase and its thickness based on the entanglement density distribution of the polymer chains.

We wish Jakob all the best in his master’s studies and success in his future career.
