  • Coarse-Grained Modelling of DNA and DNA Self-Assembly

    by Thomas E. Ouldridge ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis presents a novel coarse-grained model of DNA, in which bases are represented as rigid nucleotides. The model is shown to quantitatively reproduce many phenomena, including elastic properties of the double-stranded state, hairpin formation in single strands and hybridization of pairs of strands to form duplexes, the first time such a wide range of properties has been captured by a ...

  • Non-equilibrium Phenomena in Confined Soft Matter

    Irreversible Adsorption, Physical Aging and Glass Transition at the Nanoscale

    Edited by Simone Napolitano ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book deals with those properties of non-equilibrium soft matter that deviate greatly from the bulk properties as a result of nanoscale confinement.The ultimate physical origin of these confinement effects is not yet fully understood. At the state of the art, the discussion on confinement effects focuses on equilibrium properties, finite size effects and interfacial interactions. However this ... Read more

  • Bottom-Up Self-Organization in Supramolecular Soft Matter

    Principles and Prototypical Examples of Recent Advances

    Edited by Stefan C. Müller, Jürgen Parisi ...
    Series Book 217 - Springer Series in Materials Science
    This book presents the general concepts of self-organized spatio-temporal ordering processes. These concepts are demonstrated via prototypical examples of recent advances in materials science. Particular emphasis is on nano scale soft matter in physics, chemistry, biology and biomedicine. The questions addressed embrace a broad spectrum of complex nonlinear phenomena, ranging from self-assembling ... Read more

  • Topological Interactions in Ring Polymers

    by Davide Michieletto ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Ring polymers are one of the last big mysteries in polymer physics, and this thesis tackles the problem of describing their behaviour when interacting in dense solutions and with complex environments and reports key findings that help shed light on these complex issues. The systems investigated are not restricted to artificial polymer systems, but also cover biologically inspired ensembles, ... Read more

  • Smart Wormlike Micelles

    Design, Characteristics and Applications

    by Yujun Feng, Zonglin Chu, Cécile A. Dreiss ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    This Brief provides an up-to-date overview of smart surfactants and describes a broad spectrum of triggers that induce the formation of wormlike micelles or reversibly tune the morphology of surfactant aggregates from wormlike micelles to another state, or vice versa. Combining the fields of chemistry, physics, polymer science, and nanotechnology, its primary focus is on the design, formulation, ... Read more

  • Cavitation in Non-Newtonian Fluids

    With Biomedical and Bioengineering Applications

    by Emil Brujan ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Non-Newtonian properties on bubble dynamics and cavitation are fundamentally different from those of Newtonian fluids. The most significant effect arises from the dramatic increase in viscosity of polymer solutions in an extensional flow, such as that generated about a spherical bubble during its growth or collapse phase. In addition, many biological fluids, such as blood, synovial fluid, and ... Read more

  • Assessing the Functional Structure of Molecular Transporters by EPR Spectroscopy

    by Matthias J.N.Junk ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    In his thesis, Matthias Junk takes an innovative approach to assess the local structure and dynamics of biological and synthetic amphiphilic macromolecules capable of transporting small molecules. Replacing the latter with stable radicals, he uses state-of-the-art electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy to describe the highly relevant transport function from the viewpoint of the guest ...

  • Formation and Cooperative Behaviour of Protein Complexes on the Cell Membrane

    by Ksenia Guseva ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    With the aim of providing a deeper insight into possible mechanisms of biological self-organization, this thesis presents new approaches to describe the process of self-assembly and the impact of spatial organization on the function of membrane proteins, from a statistical physics point of view. It focuses on three important scenarios: the assembly of membrane proteins, the collective response of ... Read more

  • Smart Biomaterials

    by Mitsuhiro Ebara, Naokazu Idota, Young-Jin Kim, John M. Hoffman, Koichiro Uto, Takao Aoyagi, Yohei Kotsuchibashi, Ravin Narain ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    This book provides comprehensive coverage of smart biomaterials and their potential applications, a field that is developing at a very rapid pace. Because smart biomaterials are an emerging class of biomaterials that respond to small changes in external stimuli with large discontinuous changes in their physical properties, they have been designed to act as an “on–off” switch for, among others, bio ...

  • Organogels

    Thermodynamics, Structure, Solvent Role, and Properties

    by Jean-Michel Guenet ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book provides a physics-oriented introduction to organogels with a comparison to polymer thermoreversible gels whenever relevant. The past decade has seen the development of a wide variety of newly-synthesized molecules that can spontaneously self-assemble or crystallize from their organic or aqueous solutions to produce fibrillar networks, namely organogels, with potential applications in ...
