Many-body contributions to polymorphism and polyhexaticity in a water monolayer
Oriol Vilanova, Giancarlo Franzese
Nanoconfined water plays a crucial role in nanofluidics, biology, and cutting-edge technologies. The process of melting water monolayers and quasi-two-dimensional confined water in…
Efficient parallel algorithms for free-energy calculation of millions of water molecules in the fluid phases
Luis Enrique Coronas, Oriol Vilanova, Giancarlo Franzese
Simulating water droplets made up of millions of molecules and on timescales as needed in biological and technological applications is challenging due to the difficulty of balancin…
Characterizing the Hard and Soft Nanoparticle-Protein Corona with Multilayer Adsorption
Oriol Vilanova, Alberto Martinez-Serra, Marco P Monopoli +1
Nanoparticles (NPs) in contact with biological fluid adsorb biomolecules into a corona. This corona comprises proteins that strongly bind to the NP (hard corona) and loosely bound…
The Franzese-Stanley Coarse Grained Model for Hydration Water
Luis Enrique Coronas, Oriol Vilanova, Valentino Bianco +2
Water modeling is a challenging problem. Its anomalies are difficult to reproduce, promoting the proliferation of a large number of computational models, among which researchers se…
Multi-scale approach for self-Assembly and protein folding
Oriol Vilanova, Valentino Bianco, Giancarlo Franzese
We develop a multi-scale approach to simulate hydrated nanobio systems under realistic condi- tions (e.g., nanoparticles and protein solutions at physiological conditions over time…
Structural and dynamical properties of nanoconfined supercooled water
Oriol Vilanova, Giancarlo Franzese
Bulk water presents a large number of crystalline and amorphous ices. Hydrophobic nanoconfinement is known to affect the tendency of water to form ice and to reduce the melting tem…
