We develop a machine-learning method for coarse-graining condensed-phase molecular systems using anisotropic particles. The method extends currently available high-dimensional neural network potentials by addressing molecular anisotropy. We…
Porous materials are widely used for applications in gas storage and separation. The diffusive properties of a variety of gases in porous media can be modeled using molecular dynamics simulations that can be computationally demanding…
We derive a coarse-grained description of the dynamics of a nanoparticle immersed in an isothermal simple fluid by performing a systematic coarse graining of the underlying microscopic dynamics. As coarse-grained or relevant variables we…
We propose an approach that links density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to study fluid behavior in nanopores in contact with bulk (macropores). It consists of two principal steps. First, the theoretical…
Many coarse-grained models have been developed for equilibrium studies of lipid bilayer membranes. To achieve in simulations access to length-scales and time-scales difficult to attain in fully atomistic molecular dynamics, these…
Computer simulations can provide mechanistic insight into ionic liquids (ILs) and predict the properties of experimentally unrealized ion combinations. However, ILs suffer from a particularly large disparity in the time scales of atomistic…
Many porous media are mixtures of inert and reactive materials, manifesting spatio-chemical heterogeneity. We study the evolution of scalar transport in a chemically heterogeneous material that mimics a green roof soil substrate,…
We present a mesoscopic hydrodynamic model for a spreading drop of volatile partially wetting liquid on a solid porous layer of small thickness. Thereby, evaporation takes place under strong confinement, i.e., we consider a drop that…
We propose a highly coarse-grained simulation model for crystalline polymer solids with crystalline lamellar structures. The mechanical properties of a crystalline polymer solid are mainly determined by the crystalline lamellar structures.…
We systematically derive an exact coarse-grained description for interacting particles with thermodynamically consistent stochastic dynamics, applicable across different observation scales, the mesoscopic and the macroscopic. We implement…
We present a simple mechanical model for dynamic wetting phenomena. Metallic balls spread along a periodically corrugated surface simulating molecules of liquid advancing along a solid substrate. A vertical stack of balls mimics a liquid…
Developing effective descriptions of the microscopic dynamics of many physical phenomena can both dramatically enhance their computational exploration and lead to a more fundamental understanding of the underlying physics. Previously, an…
Isothermal-isobaric molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to examine a broad set of properties of the model water-1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) mixture as a function of composition. The SPC-E and TIP4P-Ew water models and the…
Complex fluids exhibit structure on a wide range of length and time scales, and hierarchical approaches are necessary to investigate all facets of their often unusual properties. The study of idealized coarse-grained models at different…
In this work, a two-dimensional time-fractional subdiffusion model is developed to investigate the underlying transport phenomena evolving in a binary medium comprised of two sub-domains occupied by homogeneous material. We utilise an…
Dynamical heterogeneities have been introduced in the context of the glass transition of molecular liquids and the lengthscale associated with them has been argued to be at the origin of the observed quasi-universal behaviour of glassy…
It is well known that the classical energetically consistent micropolar model has limits in simulating the frequency band structure of packed granular materials (see Merkel et al., 2011). It is here shown that if a standard continualization…
We introduce a coarse-grained model for atomic glass formers. Its elements are physically motivated local microscopic dynamical rules parameterized by observables. Results of the model are established and used to interpret the measured…
This study presents physical observations and insights into particle migration characteristics throughout the suffusion process. Using a purpose-built coaxial permeameter cell, suffusion experiments were conducted on idealised internally…
In this letter, we report results on the effect of temperature variations on a granular assembly through Molecular Dynamic simulations of a 2D granular column. Periodic dilation of the grains are shown to perfectly mimic such thermal…
