Glass transition and layering effects in confined water: a computer simulation study

open access: yes, 2000
Single particle dynamics of water confined in a nanopore is studied through Computer Molecular Dynamics. The pore is modeled to represent the average properties of a pore of Vycor glass.

Glassy dynamics in DNA: Ruled by water of hydration? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 1999
Inelastic neutron scattering spectra of DNA-fibers are analyzed using ideas formulated recently in the field of the glass transition. The analysis reveals two temperatures, namely, T∼180–200 K and T∼230 K, at which the dynamics of DNA exhibits qualitative changes.

Non-exponential kinetic behavior of confined water

open access: yes, 2000
We present the results of molecular dynamics simulations of SPC/E water confined in a realistic model of a silica pore. The single-particle dynamics have been studied at ambient temperature for different hydration levels.

Evidence for Bound and Free Water Species in the Hydration Shell of an Aqueous Micelle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Our atomistic molecular dynamics simulations reveal the existence of bound and free water molecules in the hydration layer of an aqueous micelle. The bound water molecules can be either singly or doubly hydrogen bonded to the polar head group on the ...

A molecular dynamics study of proton hopping in nafion membrane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper was presented at the 4th Micro and Nano Flows Conference (MNF2014), which was held at University College, London, UK. The conference was organised by Brunel University and supported by the Italian Union of Thermofluiddynamics, IPEM, the ...

On the Role of Dewetting Transitions in Host-Guest Binding Free Energy Calculations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We use thermodynamic integration (TI) and explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to estimate the absolute free energy of host-guest binding.

Dynamical coupling between protein conformational fluctuation and hydration water: Heterogeneous dynamics of biological water

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate dynamical coupling between water and amino acid side-chain residues in solvation dynamics by selecting residues often used as natural probes, namely tryptophan, tyrosine and histidine, located at different positions on protein surface and ...

Properties of compatible solutes in aqueous solution

open access: yes, 2011
We have performed Molecular Dynamics simulations of ectoine, hydroxyectoine and urea in explicit solvent. Special attention has been spent on the local surrounding structure of water molecules.

Distinct Dynamic Behaviors of Water Molecules in Hydrated Pores

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2006
Water molecules confined inside narrow pores are of great importance in understanding the structure, stability, and function of water channels. Here we report that besides the H-bonding water that structures the pore, the permanent presence of a significant, fast-moving fraction of incompletely H-bonded water molecules inside the pore should control ...
