Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Water in Single WallCarbon Nanotube
author
Abstract:
The overall aim of this study is to calculate some water properties in the single wall carbon naotubes (SWCNT) and compare them to the bulk water properties to investigate the deviation of water properties inside the SWCNT from those in the bulk. Here some physical and transport properties of water molecules in the single wall carbon nanotube were reported by performing molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Radial and axial density; hydrogen bond numbering; hydrogen bond distribution and diffusivity of water molecules inside the SWCNT were calculated. Results have good agreements with other researcher results. These calculations show that molecular dynamics simulation would be a reasonable method to analyze the properties of the new nanoscale systems.

full textMolecular dynamics simulation of polyethylene on single wall carbon nanotube.
Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out on the isothermal crystallization process of single polyethylene chains with different chain lengths on the single wall carbon nanotube. This process is summarized as two steps, i.e., adsorption and orientation, and the bond-orientational order parameter is used to show the details of this process. The results show that the attractive van der Waals...

Background: The separation of drug enantiomers in the pharmaceutical industry is of great importance since most organic compounds are chiral. The main purpose of this study was to calculate the binding energy of ibuprofen isomers interacting with the CNT, according to various adsorption configurations. Moreover, we have evaluated the performance of (16.4) chiral carbon nanotube for separation o...

This paper investigates the mechanism of water transportation through aquaporin-4(AQP4) of ratbrain cells by means of molecular dynamics simulation with CHARMM software. The AQP4 wasembedded into a bilayer made of Dimystroilphosphatylcholine (DMPC). The results illustrate thatwater molecules move through AQP4's channel with change of orientation of oxygen of eachwater molecule.
