Curvature dynamics and long-range effects on fluid-fluid interfaces with colloids
A. Tiribocchi, F. Bonaccorso, M. Lauricella +3
We investigate the dynamics of a phase-separating binary fluid, containing colloidal dumbbells anchored to the fluid-fluid interface. Extensive Lattice Boltzmann-Immersed Boundary…
Electrokinetic Lattice Boltzmann solver coupled to Molecular Dynamics: application to polymer translocation
Adwait V. Datar, Maria Fyta, Umberto Marini Bettolo Marconi +1
We develop a theoretical and computational approach to deal with systems that involve a disparate range of spatio-temporal scales, such as those comprised of colloidal particles or…
Steric modulation of ionic currents in DNA translocation through nanopores
Valerio Mazzone, Simone Melchionna, Umberto Marini Bettolo Marconi
Ionic currents accompanying DNA translocation strongly depend on molarity of the electrolyte solution and the shape and surface charge of the nanopore. By means of the Poisson-Nern…
Water confined in nanopores: spontaneous formation of microcavities
John Russo, Simone Melchionna, Francesco De Luca +1
Molecular Dynamics simulations of water confined in nanometer sized, hydrophobic channels show that water forms localized cavities for pore diameter ~ 2.0 nm. The cavities present…
Intermittent permeation of cylindrical nanopores by water
Rosalind Allen, Simone Melchionna, Jean-Pierre Hansen
Molecular Dynamics simulations of water molecules in nanometre sized cylindrical channels connecting two reservoirs show that the permeation of water is very sensitive to the chann…
