Intermolecular interactions in AuIand AuIIIcomplexes

Perturbation analyses of intermolecular interactions.

Conformational fluctuations of a protein molecule are important to its function, and it is known that environmental molecules, such as water molecules, ions, and ligand molecules, significantly affect the function by changing the conformational fluctuations. However, it is difficult to systematically understand the role of environmental molecules because intermolecular interactions related to t...

Bifurcation and Chaos in Size-Dependent NEMS Considering Surface Energy Effect and Intermolecular Interactions

The impetus of this study is to investigate the chaotic behavior of a size-dependent nano-beam with double-sided electrostatic actuation, incorporating surface energy effect and intermolecular interactions. The geometrically nonlinear beam model is based on Euler-Bernoulli beam assumption. The influence of the small-scale and the surface energy effect are modeled by implementing the consistent ...

Copper Acetylacetonate Intermolecular Interactions with Conjugated Polymers

Hybrid propellants are of great interest in space propulsion for combining desirable characteristics of solid and liquid propulsion technologies: simplicity and operational readiness (from solid) with variable thrust and high performance (from liquid), minimizing the disadvantages associated with each one. However, a hybrid propulsion was always limited to the low rate of burning of its solid f...

Computation of Electronic and Intermolecular Interactions

Intermolecular Interactions of Polypeptides and Lipids in the Thylakoid Membrane

Intermolecular interactions between chloroplast lipids and a polypeptide fraction from thylakoids were investigated by far ultraviolet circular dichroism. The polypeptide fraction was isolated from dodecyl sulfate-containing buffers. It exhibits an average molecular weight of 24 000. The circular dichroism of this polypeptide fraction measured as mean residue ellipticity is greater in the prese...
