Contribution of Water to Pressure and Cold Denaturation of Proteins
Valentino Bianco, Giancarlo Franzese
The mechanisms of cold- and pressure-denaturation of proteins are matter of debate and are commonly understood as due to water-mediated interactions. Here we study several cases of…

Simulating active agents under confinement with Dissipative Particles (hydro)Dynamics
C. Miguel Barriuso G., Jose Martin-Roca, Valentino Bianco +2
We study active agents embedded in bulk or in confinement explicitly considering hydrodynamics and simulating the swimmers via an implementation inspired by the squirmer model. We…

Tangentially Active Polymers in Cylindrical Channels
José MartÃn-Roca, Emanuele Locatelli, Valentino Bianco +2
We present an analytical and computational study characterizing the structural and dynamical properties of an active filament confined in cylindrical channels. We first outline the…
