We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the diffusion of water inside deformed carbon nanotubes with different degrees of deformation at 300 K. We found that the number of hydrogen bonds that water forms depends on nanotube topology,…
In this article we investigate through molecular dynamics simulations the diffusion behavior of the TIP4P/2005 water when confined in pristine and deformed carbon nanotubes (armchair and zigzag). To analyze different diffusive mechanisms,…
We compared the diffusion of water confined in armchair and zigzag carbon nanotubes for rigid and flexible water models. Using one rigid model, TIP4P/2005, and two flexible models, SPC/Fw and SPC/FH, we found that the number of the number…
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…
In this study, using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation, the flow of water in deformed carbon nanotubes is studied for two water models TIP4P/2005 and SPC/FH. The results demonstrated a non-uniform dependence of the flow on the…
In the last decades a large effort has been devoted to the study of water confined in hydrophobic geometries at the nanoscale (tubes, slit pores), because of the multiple technological applications of such systems, ranging from drugs…
Water nanoconfinement is known to occur inside material void spaces, such as 2D confinement between surfaces, 1D confinement inside nanotubes, and variable-dimension confinement inside nanoporous materials. In the present work we…
We study the effect of confinement in the dynamical behavior of a core-softened fluid. The fluid is modeled as a two length scales potential. This potential in the bulk reproduces the anomalous behavior observed in the density and in the…
We have used atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study the structure and dynamics of water molecules inside an open ended carbon nanotube placed in a bath of water molecules. The size of the nanotube allows only a single file…
Dimensions and molecular structure play pivotal roles in the principle of heat conduction. The dimensional characteristics of solution within nanoscale systems depend on the degrees of confinement. However, the influence of such variations…
When water molecules are confined to nanoscale spacings, such as in the nanometer size pores of activated carbon fiber (ACF), their freezing point gets suppressed down to very low temperatures ($\sim$ 150 K), leading to a metastable liquid…
We report a study of the effects of pressure on the diffusivity of water molecules confined in single- wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) with average mean pore diameter of 16 Angstroms. The measurements were carried out using high-resolution…
It is well known that water inside hydrophobic nano-channels diffuses faster than bulk water. Recent theoretical studies have shown that this enhancement depends on the size of the hydrophobic nanochannels. However, experimental evidence of…
We explore by molecular dynamic simulations the thermodynamical behavior of an anomalous fluid confined inside rigid and flexible nanopores. The fluid is modeled by a two length scale potential. In the bulk this system exhibits the density…
Experiments and computer simulations demonstrate that water spontaneously fills the hydrophobic cavity of a carbon nanotube. To gain a quantitative thermody- namic understanding of this phenomenon, we use the recently developed Two Phase…
The properties of liquid water are known to change drastically in confined geometries. A most interesting and intriguing phenomenon is that the diffusion of water is found to be strongly enhanced by the proximity of a hydrophobic confining…
Water confined in nanoscale cavities plays a crucial role in everyday phenomena in geology and biology, as well as technological applications at the water-energy nexus. However, even understanding the basic properties of nano-confined water…
Experimental measurements have reported ultra-fast and radius-dependent water transport in carbon nanotubes which are absent in boron nitride nanotubes. Despite considerable effort, the origin of this contrasting (and fascinating) behaviour…
The mechanical properties of nanoconfined water layers are still poorly understood and continue to create considerable controversy, despite their importance for biology and nanotechnology. Here, we report on dynamic nanomechanical…
Fully atomistic molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to investigate how a liquid-like water droplet behaves when into contact with a nanopore formed by carbon nanotube arrays. We have considered different tube arrays, varying the…
