Research summary

Grigori A. Medvedev studies how glassy polymers and molecular glasses behave when deformed and how their internal structure relaxes over time and temperature, aiming to build predictive models of mechanical and thermal behavior. A related line of work examines catalytic mechanisms in polymer synthesis, such as how certain metal catalysts control the structure of polyethylene copolymers. This research combines experimental measurements (like calorimetry and mechanical testing) with mathematical modeling to understand materials near their glass transition.

Publication output has been relatively steady but modest over the last decade, fluctuating between about 1 and 6 papers per year, with a gap in 2025 followed by a rebound in 2026.
