We present an efficient method for the computer simulation of granular media based on dynamic triangulations. Round and polygonal grains are considered. In both cases, we explain the theoretical principles on which the methods are based. The simulation sch ...
The primary damage formation in Mo is investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with embedded-defect (ED) and embedded-atom method (EAM) interatomic potentials. The former is similar in spirit to the latter but includes an approximate treatment ...
Pyrene fluorescence intensity and conductivity measurements were used to determine the cmc of two monomeric surfactants namely, dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as well as two gemini surfactants, 16-3-16 2Br and 16-4-16 2 ...
We present a systematic study of B-DNA flexibility in aqueous solution using long-scale molecular dynamics simulations with the two more recent versions of nucleic acids force fields (CHARMM27 and parmbsc0) using four long duplexes designed to contain seve ...

Transport of contaminants in coastal aquifers subject to tidal fluctuation is an important topic in hydrogeology as a consequence of the significant development of human activities near the shoreline. Despite this, relatively little work has been done to i ...
In this paper, we model a spatially varying channel where a source is moving along a random trajectory with respect to a fixed re- ceiver. The aim is to compute the power spectral density corre- sponding to the channel impulse response as a function of tem ...
A review with 184 refs. The authors review the principles of the Car-Parrinello method for ab initio mol. dynamics (AIMD) simulations by first outlining the foundations of the method based on d. functional theory, plane wave basis sets and pseudopotentials ...
In this study, we investigated the effect of beach slope for a coastal aquifer adjacent to a low-relief estuary. The waste was suspected to discharge leachate towards the estuary. Field observations at various locations showed that tidally induced groundwa ...
Compressive Sensing (CS) is an emerging area which uses a relatively small number of non-traditional samples in the form of randomized projections to reconstruct sparse or compressible signals. This paper considers the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation ...
