Electrorotation in graded colloidal suspensions
J. P. Huang, K. W. Yu, G. Q. Gu +1
Biological cells can be treated as composites of graded material inclusions. In addition to biomaterials, graded composites are important in more traditional materials science. In…
A new dimension to Turing patterns
Teemu Leppanen, Mikko Karttunen, Kimmo Kaski +2
It is well known that simple reaction-diffusion systems can display very rich pattern formation behavior. Here we have studied two examples of such systems in three dimensions. Fir…
Instabilities and resistance fluctuations in thin accelerated superconducting rings
Mikko Karttunen, K. R. Elder, Martin B. Tarlie +1
The non-equilibrium properties of a driven quasi-one dimensional superconducting ring subjected to a constant electromotive force ({\it emf}) is studied. The {\it emf} accelerates…
Systematic comparison of force fields for microscopic simulations of NaCl in aqueous solutions: Diffusion, free energy of hydration and structural properties
Michael Patra, Mikko Karttunen
In this paper we compare different force fields that are widely used (Gromacs, Charmm-22/x-Plor, Charmm-27, Amber-1999, OPLS-AA) in biophysical simulations containing aqueous NaCl.…
Stability of charge inversion, Thomson problem and application to electrophoresis
Michael Patra, Marco Patriarca, Mikko Karttunen
We analyse charge inversion in colloidal systems at zero temperature using stability concepts, and connect this to the classical Thomson problem of arranging electrons on sphere. W…
