  1. 1. Computer Simulations of Polymer Gels : Structure, Dynamics, and Deformation

    Författare :Natasha Kamerlin; Christer Elvingson; Jan Forsman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computer simulations; Brownian dynamics; polymer gel; microgel; spherical boundary conditions; hypersphere; core-shell; deswelling; mechanical properties; uniaxial elongation;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the results of computer simulation studies of the structure, dynamics, and deformation of cross-linked polymer gels. Obtaining a fundamental understanding of the interrelation between the detailed structure and the properties of polymer gels is a challenge and a key issue towards designing materials for specific purposes.

  3. 2. Relaxation and Resonance in Brownian Motion-Coupled Resonators

    Författare :Christin Rhen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nonequilibrium dynamics; nonlinear dynamics; resonance; nanomechanics; relaxation; superconducting circuits.; resonator; dispersive coupling; noise; Brownian motion;

    Sammanfattning : In physics, there exists a number of paradigm systems – exactly solvable models that can represent a wide variety of physical realizations. My research is concerned with two of these paradigm systems: the harmonic oscillator and Brownian motion. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Brownian Dynamics Simulations of Macromolecules : Algorithm Development and Polymers under Confinement

    Författare :Tobias Carlsson; Christer Elvingson; Wim Briels; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I have used computer simulations to study the structure and dynamics of grafted polymers during confinement. These systems are of importance for understanding e.g. colloidal stability and surface coatings. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Computer simulations of electronic energy transfer and a molecular dynamics study of a decapeptide

    Författare :Maria Lindberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electronic energy transfer; Monte Carlo simulations; two-particle model; GAF-theory; anisotropic systems; fluorescence depolarization ratios; Brownian Dynamics; rotating donors; Molecular Dynamics; peptide; renin inhibitor;

    Sammanfattning : Electronic energy transfer has been investigated in pure donor systems by means of computer simulations. Calculated properties were the probability that the initially excited donor is excited at a time t after the excitation, Gs(t), the mean square displacement of the excitation and different fluorescence observables.

  7. 5. Water Relaxation Processes as Seen by NMR Spectroscopy Using MD and BD Simulations

    Författare :Ken Åman; Per-Olof Westlund; Arnold Maliniak; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; NMR; Stochastic Liouville Equation; Brownian Dynamics; Molecular Dynamics; Water; Relaxation; Deuterium; ESR; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes water proton and deuterium relaxation processes, as seen by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, using Brownian Dynamics (BD) or Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The MD simulations reveal new detailed information about the dynamics and order of water molecules outside of a lipid bilayer. LÄS MER
