Diffusiophoresis in complex and confined fluids
Moving fluids at the micro- and nano-scales requires a different approach compared to the traditional methods based on pressure gradients. The increase of surface/volume ratio as the length of the systems decreases the efficiency of the latter. The use of thermodynamic forces such as electric …

Multiscale models for structure and dynamics of confined fluids
… to study structural and dynamical properties of confined fluids. With the advent of nanofluidics and nanobiotechnology, fluids confined inside nanometer scale geometries have become a subject of both fundamental investigation and applied research. An understanding of the structural and dynamical …

A multiscale theory to determine thermodynamic properties of confined fluids
… inhomogeneous density and potential profiles of confined fluids. EQT potentials can be used to construct a grand potential functional for classical density functional theory (cDFT). The combination of EQT and cDFT provides a robust and accurate approach to predict the structure and thermodynamic …

Bridging the gap between atomistic and continuum models to predict dielectric and thermodynamic properties of confined fluids
Nanoconfined fluids are ubiquitous and play a prominent role in nature and technological applications. Understanding the physics of the confined fluids and obtaining atomic-level insights into their unusual properties is essential to develop and design novel nanofluidic applications related to …

A coarse grained transport model for nanofluidic systems
… Although many existing CG models for various fluids are able to capture structure and dynamics of the bulk fluid accurately, these models are not suited to describe transport phenomena involving explicit walls in nano-channels. Previous coarse-grained models for confined fluids are only …

Under confinement : molecular dynamics investigations of ions and molecules in nanopores and at nanoscale interfaces.
… as carbon nanotubes and graphene sheets with confined fluids are promising for the enhancement of such technologies. Through molecular dynamics simulations, investigations of aqueous electrolytes in a series of carbon nanotubes were performed, examining ionic current and solvent transport …
