Modeling of Electrostatic Interactions inside Human Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels
In this project, we focus on the permeation of Na+ through human voltage-gated sodium channels (Navs). Despite their biological significance, the selective permeation mechanism of Nav channels remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Here, we calculated electric fields inside the channel …

A phase field model for the gallium permeation of aluminum grain boundaries
… boundary structure-property relationship: the permeation of liquid gallium through aluminum grain boundaries. Liquid gallium is known to permeate through aluminum grain boundaries. The reduction in interface energy by the replacement of one Al-Al grain boundary interface with two Al-Ga …

Studies on Hydrogen Selective Silica Membranes and the Catalytic Reforming of CH₄ with CO₂ in a Membrane Reactor
… Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy, and the mechanism of gas transport was studied applying existing theories with a newly developed treatment. The catalytic reforming of CH₄ with CO₂ was carried out in a membrane reactor installed with a hydrogen separation ceramic membrane. The reaction was …

POLYELECTROLYTE NANOPARTICLE MEMBRANES AT WATER-WATER INTERFACES
… thesis is to identify the membrane self-assembly mechanism of such systems. We study two PE/NP systems in a dextran/PEG ATPS and find very different growth behaviors. In one case, PE/NP membranes can grow continuously to thicknesses approaching several millimeters and display high tunability via …

Experimental and Modeling Studies of the Methane Steam Reforming Reaction at High Pressure in a Ceramic Membrane Reactor
… of a novel inorganic membrane for hydrogen permeation and its application in a membrane reactor for the study of the methane steam reforming reaction. The investigations include both experimental studies of the membrane permeation mechanism and theoretical modeling of mass transfer through …

Computational study of the structure and function of membrane transport proteins
… of the sugar porter family I present a unified mechanism of transport for the uniporter class of transporters. A second class of transporters namely symporters that couple the electrochemical gradient of a co transported ion to perform the uphill transport of the substrate was also studied. …
