Adaptive Resolution Simulation of Liquid Water

Matej Praprotnik, Luigi Delle Site, Kurt Kremer +2

We present a multiscale simulation of liquid water where a spatially adaptive molecular resolution procedure allows for changing on-the-fly from a coarse-grained to an all-atom rep…

A novel method for measuring the bending rigidity of model lipid membranes by simulating tethers

Vagelis A. Harmandaris, Markus Deserno

The tensile force along a cylindrical lipid bilayer tube is proportional to the membrane's bending modulus and inversely proportional to the tube radius. We show that this relation…

Field - Driven Translocation of Regular Block Copolymers through a Selective Liquid - Liquid Interface

A. Corsi, A. Milchev, V. G. Rostiashvili +1

We propose a simple scaling theory describing the variation of the mean first passage time (MFPT) of a regular block copolymer of chain length and block size which…

Photonic mode density effects on single-molecule fluorescence blinking

F. D. Stefani, K. Vasilev, N. Bocchio +3

We investigated the influence of the photonic mode density (PMD) on the triplet dynamics of individual chromophores on a dielectric interface by comparing their response in the pre…

Finite Size Polyelectrolyte Bundles at Thermodynamic Equilibrium

Mehmet Sayar, Christian Holm

We present the results of extensive computer simulations performed on solutions of monodisperse charged rod-like polyelectrolytes in the presence of trivalent counterions. To overc…

Classical kinetic energy, quantum fluctuation terms and kinetic-energy functionals

I. P. Hamilton, Ricardo A. Mosna, L. Delle Site

We employ a recently formulated dequantization procedure to obtain an exact expression for the kinetic energy which is applicable to all kinetic-energy functionals. We express the…

Adaptive molecular resolution via a continuous change of the phase space dimensionality

Matej Praprotnik, Kurt Kremer, Luigi Delle Site

For the study of complex synthetic and biological molecular systems by computer simulations one is still restricted to simple model systems or to by far too small time scales. To o…

Hyperdynamics for entropic systems: time-space compression and pair correlation function approximation

Xin Zhou, Yi Jiang, Kurt Kremer +2

We develop a generalized hyperdynamics method, which is able to simulate slow dynamics in atomistic general (both energy and entropy-dominated) systems. We show that a few function…

A path integral approach to the dynamics of random chains

Franco Ferrari, Jaroslaw Paturej, Thomas A. Vilgis

In this work the dynamics of a freely jointed random chain with small masses attached to the joints is studied from a microscopic point of view. The chain is treated using a string…

Atomistic simulation of structure and dynamics of columnar phases of hexabenzocoronene derivatives

Denis Andrienko, Valentina Marcon, Kurt Kremer

Using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations we study solid and liquid crystalline columnar discotic phases formed by alkyl-substituted hexabenzocoronene mesogens. Correlations b…

Structure of Polymer Brushes in Cylindrical Tubes: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation

Dimitar I. Dimitrov, Andrey Milchev, Kurt Binder +1

Molecular Dynamics simulations of a coarse-grained bead-spring model of flexible macromolecules tethered with one end to the surface of a cylindrical pore are presented. Chain leng…

Colloidal particles at a nematic-isotropic interface: effects of confinement

J. L. West, K. Zhang, A. Glushchenko +3

When captured by a flat nematic-isotropic interface, colloidal particles can be dragged by it. As a result spatially periodic structures may appear, with the period depending on a…

Kinetics of copolymer localization at a selective liquid-liquid interface

A. Corsi, A. Milchev, V. G. Rostiashvili +1

The localization kinetics of a regular block-copolymer of total length and block size at a selective liquid-liquid interface is studied in the limit of strong segregation b…

How to determine local elastic properties of lipid bilayer membranes from atomic-force-microscope measurements: A theoretical analysis

Davood Norouzi, Martin Michael Mueller, Markus Deserno

Measurements with an atomic force microscope (AFM) offer a direct way to probe elastic properties of lipid bilayer membranes locally: provided the underlying stress-strain relation…

Aggregates of rod-coil diblock copolymers adsorbed at a surface

C. Nowak, T. A. Vilgis

The behaviour of rod-coil diblock copolymers close to a surface is discussed by using extended scaling methods. The copolymers are immersed in selective solvent such that the rods…

Electrophoresis of colloidal dispersions in the low-salt regime

Vladimir Lobaskin, Burkhard Duenweg, Martin Medebach +2

We study the electrophoretic mobility of spherical charged colloids in a low-salt suspension as a function of the colloidal concentration. Using an effective particle charge and a…
