Specific molecular interactions underlie unexpected and useful phenomena in nanofluidic systems, but require descriptions that go beyond traditional macroscopic hydrodynamics. In this letter, we demonstrate how equilibrium molecular…
In this study, using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation, the water flow in carbon nanocones is studied using the TIP4P/2005 rigid water model. The results demonstrate a nonuniform dependence of the flow on the cone apex angle and…
The self-assembly mechanism of one-end-open carbon nanotubes (CNTs) suspended in an aqueous solution was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. It was shown that two one-end-open CNTs with different diameters can coaxially self-assemble…
Using a Coarse-grained Molecular Dynamics (CMD) approach we study the apparent nonlinear dynamics of water molecules filling/emptying carbon nanotubes as a function of system parameters. Different levels of the pore hydrophobicity give rise…
This computational study investigates glyphosate adsorption mechanisms on hydroxyl-functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as an alternative approach for environmental remediation. Single-walled CNTs with (10,0) zigzag chirality were…
Friction forces are conventionally modeled via semiclassical theories that associate energy dissipation with newtonian motion on corrugated interface potentials. This consolidated approach is challenged at the nanoscale by observation of…
In molecular dynamics simulations, nanochannel flows are usually driven by a constant force, that aims to represent a pressure difference between inlet and outlet, and periodic boundary conditions are applied in the streamwise direction…
Narrow carbon nanotubes (CNTs) desalinate water, mimicking water channels of biological membranes, yet the physics behind selectivity, especially, the effect of the membrane embedding CNTs on water and ion transfer, is still unclear. Here,…
Extensive molecular dynamics simulations of water permeation and ion selectivity of the single-walled carbon nanotubes with the radial deformation are presented . The simulated results indicate that there is a close relationship between the…
Water and water-mediated interactions determine thermodynamic and kinetics of protein folding, protein aggregation and self-assembly in confined spaces. To obtain insights into the role of water in the context of folding problems, we…
A simple model for the friction experienced by the one dimensional water chains that flow through subnanometer diameter carbon nanotubes is studied. The model is based on a lowest order perturbation theory treatment of the friction…
We have investigated the diffusion and structure of TIP4P/2005 water confined in carbon nanotubes subjected to external electric fields. A wide range of diameters has been used to show a highly size-dependent behavior of the water…
The aim of the paper is the study of fluid mixtures in nanotubes by the methods of continuum mechanics. The model starts from a statistical distribution in mean-field molecular theory and uses a density expansion of Taylor series. We get a…
The curvature dependence of the physisorption properties of a water molecule inside and outside an armchair carbon nanotube (CNTs) is investigated by an incremental density-fitting local coupled cluster treatment with single and double…
A simple 1D lattice gas model is presented, which very well describes the equilibrium and kinetic behaviors of water confined in a thin carbon nanotube found in an atomistic molecular dynamics(MD) simulation {[} Nature {\bf 414}, 188 (2001)…
Co$_3$O$_4$ is an important catalyst for the oxidation of organic molecules in the liquid phase. Still, understanding the atomistic details of Co$_3$O$_4$-water interfaces under operando conditions remains extremely challenging. While ab…
Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate the water permeation across the single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) with the radial breathing mode (RBM) vibration. It is found that the RBM can play a significant role in…
Using molecular dynamics simulations we study the dynamics of a water-like TIP5P model of water in hydrophilic and hydrophobic confinement. We find that in case of extreme nanocofinement such that there is only one molecular layer of water…
The theory of electrokinetic ion transport in cylindrical channels of a fixed surface charge density is revisited. Attention is focused on impact of the hydrophobic slippage and mobility of adsorbed surface charges. We formulate generalised…
The equilibrium density of fluids under nanoconfinement can differ substantially from their bulk density. Using a mean-field approach to describe the energetic landscape near the carbon nanotube (CNT) wall, we obtain analytical results…
