An effective potential approach in combination with the molecular dynamics (MD) method was used to study effect of ionic core on transport properties ions warm dense matter regime. As an example, we considered shocked silicon. The results MD simulations within microcanonical ensemble were analyzed by computing mean squared displacement (MSD) and velocity autocorrelation function (VAF) particles...

In this paper we suggest a method of approaching one biomagnetic modelling problem where subjective judgements are common; the identification of the number and locations of discrete regions of activity. These regions are often modelled as current dipoles. In multi-dipolar systems several different modelling approaches may be adopted. If there is a-priori evidence for a particular set of fixed l...

Investigation of the local dynamic behavior of atoms and molecules in liquids is crucial for revealing the origin of macroscopic liquid properties. Therefore, direct imaging of single atoms to understand their motions in liquids is desirable. Ionic liquids have been studied for various applications, in which they are used as electrolytes or solvents. However, atomic-scale diffusion and relaxati...

We investigate the effects of variable linear charge density and Debye length on the mesoscopic properties of beta-lactoglobulin fibers in water, by changing the pH and ionic strength, respectively. We determine the isotropic-nematic (I-N) transition by cross-polarized microscopy and quantify by atomic force microscopy the increasing tendency of the fibers to aggregate upon raising ionic streng...

Dynamic tribochemical processes for dicationic ionic liquid containing a germinal 14 imidazolium cation head groups bridged by a poly(ethylene glycol) and 15 bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anion were studied using time-resolved Mechanically 16 Stimulated Gas Emission Mass-Spectrometry (MSGE-MS). In comparison with similar 17 monocationic imidazolium ionic liquids with short alkylic or long p...

Wear phenomena understanding of implants is a challenge: friction-corrosion of biomaterials, which constitute orthopaedic implants, is a significant issue concerning the aseptic loosening. This work aims at studying AISI 316L/bone cement friction which is a tribological problem related to hip joint cemented prostheses. This study focuses on the ionic strength effect on the tribological behaviou...

This is the first report on the measurement of homogeneous nucleation temperature, TH, in the presence of aqueous mixed salt systems of varying compositions and ionic strengths. The TH,m (TH value in aqueous mixed salt system) data for these systems have been analyzed in terms of a simple empirical equation. The TH,m values in simple aqueous mixed salts like NaCl-KCl can be approximated by line...

1. The dependence on ATP concentration of ATPase activity and light scattering decrease of acto-HMM could be described at very low ionic strength by one hyperbolic adsorption isotherm with a dissociation constant of 3 X 10(-6)M. Hence the increase of ATP ase activity was paralleled by a decrease in light scattering. At higher values of ionic strength ATPase activity stopped rising before HMM wa...

The current study isolated and characterized the Lip3F9 polypeptide sequence of Deschampsia antarctica Desv. (GeneBank Accession Number JX846628), which was found to be comprised of 291 base pairs and was, moreover, expressed in Pichia pastoris X-33 cells. The enzyme was secreted after 24 h of P. pastoris culture incubation and through induction with methanol. The expressed protein showed maxim...
