Soft Condensed Matter Physics [PDF]

Solid State Communications, 1996
Soft condensed matter physics is the study of materials, such as fluids, liquid crystals, polymers, colloids, and emulsions, that are ``soft" to the touch.

Viruses and the physics of soft condensed matter [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
Almost 50 years ago, Francis Crick and James Watson observed that “almost all small viruses are either spheres or rods” and put forth the hypothesis that such viruses were symmetrical arrays of subunits (1). In the following paper in that issue of Nature , Donald Caspar demonstrated that tomato bushy stunt virus had at least cubic symmetry and provided

Shock (Blast) Mitigation by "Soft" Condensed Matter [PDF]

MRS Proceedings, 2003
ABSTRACTIt is a common point that “soft” condensed matter (like granular materials or foams) can reduce damage caused by impact or explosion. It is attributed to their ability to absorb significant energy. This is certainly the case for quasistatic type of deformation at low velocity of impact widely used for packing of fragile devices.

EMERGENT PHENOMENA IN CONDENSED MATTER, SOFT MATTER AND COMPLEX SYSTEMS

, 2021
Physical systems composed of a large number of reciprocally interacting constituents provide the natural context for the rise of emergent phenomena. Despite the intrinsic difficulty in providing a mathematical definition of what is meant for ?emergence? (see [Baas, in Langton, Alife III, Santa Fe Studies in the Sciences of Complexity, Proc. Volume XVII,

Soft Condensed Matter in Pharmaceutical Design

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2006
In recent years pharmaceutical design has been facing the needs expressed by new therapeutic methodologies such as gene therapy, targeted delivery and closely related diagnostic fields as contrast enhancing agents for ultrasonic investigations. In this context pharmaceutical research has diversified the efforts toward a more integrated approach where ...
