Orientation of ruthenium dipyridophenazine complexes in liposome membranes sensitively controlled by ligand substituents
Liposomes can be deformed to ellipsoidal shapes in a shear flow, and the orientation of chromophores in the lipid bilayers can then be examined with... -
Direct numerical simulation of the mechanism of surface tension auto-oscillation
A theoretical investigation of the surface tension auto-oscillations is performed by direct numerical simulation of the behaviour of a system where a... -
Phase behaviour of the 1-monooleoyl- rac-glycerol /n-octyl-β-D-glucoside/water system
Obtaining high-quality crystals for X-ray diffraction from membrane proteins has proven to be a difficult task. One recently presented method... -
Stabilisation of an amphoteric latex by hydration forces
The colloidal stability of an amphoteric polystyrene latex has been studied using a low-angle light scattering technique (nephelometry). Measurements... -
11. Integration of Modelling at Various Length and Time Scales
Materials modelling tools have become increasingly integrated in the R&D portfolio. The unique insights available through simulation of materials at... -
14. Multi-Grid Methods – An Introduction
The lecture will give an introductory overview on multi-grid methods. Multi-grid methods are fast solvers for algebraic equations derived from the... -
