Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of bacterial migration: I. Numerical solution of balance equation

TL;DR: Two aspects of the experimentally derived expression for the tumbling probability are investigated: the effect of different models for the down-gradient swimming behavior of the bacteria and the validity of ignoring the temporal derivative of the attractant concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rotational and Translational Dynamics of N‑Butyl‑N‑methylpiperidinium Trifluoromethanesulfonimide Ionic Liquids Studied by NMR and MD Simulations

TL;DR: In this paper, the rotational and translational dynamics of the room temperature ionic liquid N-butyl-N-methylpiperidinium trifluoromethanesulfonimide, [C4mpip][Tf2N], were investigated by 1H, 19F, and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural transition and solid-like behavior of alkane films confined in nano-spacing

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors carried out accurate molecular simulation of dodecane fluid confined between mica surfaces using molecular models appropriately describing wall-fluid interaction, and they showed that the state condition of the confined fluid is strongly influenced by the wall and fluid interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a force field for molecular simulation of the phase equilibria of perfluoromethylpropyl ether

TL;DR: In this article, a general potential model for perfluoroether compounds has been proposed, which takes the usual form in which separate bond bending and torsional terms describe the intramolecular interactions with the addition of van der Waals and electrostatic terms to describe the non-bonded interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analytic solution of the RISM equation for symmetric diatomics with Yukawa closure

TL;DR: In this paper, the site-site direct correlation function for a fluid of hard diatomic symmetric molecules obtained from Monte Carlo simulation data via the RISM integral equation is presented.
