A fluid to solid transition occurs in PNIPAM microgel suspensions as volume fraction increases.
The mean square displacement analysis shows temperature-dependent dynamics in the simulations.
Monte Carlo simulations were performed to explore the interactions of PNIPAM particles under various conditions.
Ongoing work is needed to improve the pair-potential model for over-packed scenarios involving polymer entanglements.
