Probing wetting properties with self-propelled droplets
Bernardo Boatini, Cristina Gavazzoni, Leonardo Gregory Brunnet +1
Wetting phenomena are relevant in several technological applications, particularly those involving hydrophobic or hydrophilic surfaces. Many substrates support multiple wetting sta…
Optimizing oil-water separation using fractal surfaces
Cristina Gavazzoni, Davi Lazzari, Iara Patrícia da Silva Ramos +1
Oil has become a prevalent global pollutant, stimulating the research to improve the techniques to separate oil from water. Materials with special wetting properties - primarily th…
Hierarchical structured surfaces enhance the contact angle of the hydrophobic (meta-stable) state
Iara Patrícia da Silva Ramos, Cristina Gavazzoni, Davi Lazzari +1
The relation between wetting properties and geometric parameters of fractal surfaces are widely discussed on the literature and, however, there are still divergences on this topic.…
Testing theories of the glass transition with the same liquid, but many kinetic rules
Cristina Gavazzoni, Carolina Brito, Matthieu Wyart
We study the glass transition by exploring a broad class of kinetic rules that can significantly modify the normal dynamics of super-cooled liquids, while maintaining thermal equil…
Modeling oil-water separation with controlled wetting properties
Cristina Gavazzoni, Marion Silvestrini, Carolina Brito
Several oil-water separation techniques have been proposed to improve the capacity of cleaning water. With the technological possibility of producing materials with antagonist wett…
Anomalous diffusion and diffusion anomaly in confined Janus dumbbells
Leandro B. Krott, Cristina Gavazzoni, José R. Bordin
Self-assembly and dynamical properties of Janus nanoparticles have been studied by molecular dynamic simulations. The nanoparticles are modeled as dimers and they are confined betw…
Phase diagram and water-like anomalies in core-softened shoulder-dumbbells system
Cristina Gavazzoni, Guilherme K. Gonzatti, Luiz Felipe Pereira +3
Using molecular dynamics we studied the role of the anisotropy on the phase boundary and on the anomalous behavior of 250 dimeric particles interacting by a core-softened potential…
Liquid crystal phase and waterlike anomalies in a core-softened shoulder-dumbbells system
Alan Barros de Oliveira, Eduardo B. Neves, Cristina Gavazzoni +3
Using molecular dynamics we investigate the thermodynamics, dynamics and structure of 250 diatomic molecules interacting by a core-softened potential. This system exhibits thermody…
