Modified beam theories for bending properties of nanowires considering surface/intrinsic effects and axial extension effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Several studies of the surface effect on bending properties of a nanowire (NW) have been conducted. However, these analyses are mainly based on theoretical predictions, and there is seldom integration study in combination between theoretical predictions ...

An Overview of Molecular Dynamic Simulation for Corrosion Inhibition of Ferrous Metals

open access: yesMetals, 2020
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is a powerful tool to study the molecular level working mechanism of corrosion inhibitors in mitigating corrosion. In the past decades, MD simulation has emerged as an instrument to investigate the interactions at the ...

Effect of lubricants on the rotational transmission between solid-state gears

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2022
Lubricants are widely used in macroscopic mechanical systems to reduce friction and wear. However, on the microscopic scale, it is not clear to what extent lubricants are beneficial.

Wang-Landau molecular dynamics technique to search for low-energy conformational space of proteins

open access: yes, 2007
Multicanonical molecular dynamics (MD) is a powerful technique for sampling conformations on rugged potential surfaces such as protein. However, it is notoriously difficult to estimate the multicanonical temperature effectively. Wang and Landau developed

Molecular dynamics simulation: a tool for exploration and discovery using simple models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Emergent phenomena share the fascinating property of not being obvious consequences of the design of the system in which they appear. This characteristic is no less relevant when attempting to simulate such phenomena, given that the outcome is not always

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Hybrid Simulation between Molecular Dynamics and Binary Collision Approximation Codes for Hydrogen injection onto Carbon Materials

open access: yes, 2010
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with modified Brenner's reactive empirical bond order (REBO) potential is a powerful tool to investigate plasma wall interaction on divertor plates in a nuclear fusion device.

StandsSIM-MD: a Management Driven forest SIMulator

open access: yesForest Systems, 2016
Aim of the study: The existing stand level forest simulators available in Portugal were not developed with the aim of including up-to-date model versions and were limited in terms of accounting for forest management. The simulators’ platform, sIMfLOR was recently created to implement different growth models with a common philosophy.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Relaxation of Phonons in Classical MD Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Science and Technology, 2008
We propose a novel technique of molecular dynamics simulation to evaluate the relaxation time of phonons in solids for investigation of solid heat conductivity.
