Flow of Aqueous Solutions in Carbon Nanotubes
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2004)
We conduct simulations of water flowing inside carbon nanotubes using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. A new adaptive forcing scheme is proposed to enforce a mean center of mass velocity. This scheme is ...
One-point turbulence structure tensors
(2001)
The dynamics of the evolution of turbulence statistics depend on the structure of the turbulence. For example, wavenumber anisotropy in homogeneous turbulence is known to affect both the interaction between large and small ...
Simulation-based optimal design of heavy trucks by model-based decomposition: An extensive analytical target cascading case study
(2004)
We present the findings of an extensive case study for the decomposed, simulation-based, optimal design of an advanced technology heavy truck by means of analytical target cascading. The use of a series hybridelectric ...
Nonlinear pulsed ultrasound beams radiated by rectangular focused diagnostic transducers
(2006)
A numerical model for simulating nonlinear pulsed beams radiated by rectangular focused transducers, which are typical of diagnostic ultrasound systems, is presented. The model is based on a KZK-type nonlinear evolution ...
Target cascading in vehicle redesign: A class VI truck study
(2002)
The analytical target cascading process is applied to the redesign of a U.S. class VI truck. Necessary simulation and analysis models for predicting vehicle dynamics, powertrain, and suspension behaviour are developed. ...
Reactive bimetallic Al/Ni nanostructures for nanoscale heating applications fabricated using a porous alumina template
(2009)
Porous alumina templates are attracting increasing attention for the growth of nanowires and nanodots. We demonstrate here the fabrication of reactive bimetallic nanoporous Al/Ni films and Al/Ni nanorods by electron gun ...
Formation of oligotriazoles catalysed by cucurbituril
(2002)
The catalytic activity of cucurbituril in 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions has been applied to the synthesis of oligotriazoles.
Correlations of synthetic, spectroscopic, structural, and speciation studies in the biologically relevant Cobalt(II) - Citrate system: The tale of the first aqueous dinuclear Cobalt(II) - Citrate complex
(2003)
Synthetic efforts targeting soluble species of Co(II) with the low molecular mass physiological ligand citric acid led to the isolation of the first dinuclear complex [Co2(C6H5O7)2 (H2O)4]2-, at pH ∼5, in the form of its ...
Wetting of doped carbon nanotubes by water droplets
(2005)
We study the wetting of doped single- and multi-walled carbon nanotubes by water droplets using molecular dynamics simulations. Chemisorbed hydrogen is considered as a model of surface impurities. We study systems with ...
Thin liquid crystal film for corrosion sensing
(2008)
The anchoring energy of Liquid Crystals (LCs) is influenced by several parameters. Many scientists have exploited LCs anchoring in order to develop several LC based optical sensors. This paper proposes and proves a new ...
