Liposomes and Lipid Droplets Display a Reversal of Charge-Induced Hydration Asymmetry

Sylvie Roke, Nathan Dupertuis, Saranya Pullanchery Sankara Narayanan

The unique properties of water are critical for life. Water molecules have been reported to hydrate cations and anions asymmetrically in bulk water, being a key element in the balance of biochemical interactions. We show here that this behavior extends to ...

Inferring free-energy barriers and kinetic rates from molecular dynamics via underdamped Langevin models

David Daniel Girardier, Fabio Pietrucci, Sara Bonella

Rare events include many of the most interesting transformation processes in condensed matter, from phase transitions to biomolecular conformational changes to chemical reactions. Access to the corresponding mechanisms, free-energy landscapes and kinetic r ...

Dynamic behavior of exposed geomembrane systems in pressure waterways

Giovanni De Cesare, Samuel Luke Vorlet

Geomembrane systems have been used in dams and reservoirs as rehabilitation technology since several decades and are now used worldwide. They act as impervious layer to prevent and mitigate water leakage and damage to structures. They meet the needs of man ...

Hydrogel-Encased Photonic Microspheres with Enhanced Color Saturation and High Suspension Stability

Esther Amstad

Regular arrays of colloidal particles can produce striking structural colors without the need for any chemical pigments. Regular arrays of colloidal particles can be processed into microparticles via emulsion templates for use as structural colorants. Phot ...

Controlling factors of phytoplankton distribution in the river–lake transition zone of a large lake

David Andrew Barry, Frédéric Charles Soulignac

River–lake transition zones have been identified as major drivers of phytoplankton growth. With climate change reducing the frequency of complete lake overturns, it is expected that the Rhône River, the main tributary to Lake Geneva (France/Switzerland), w ...

Gas/Surface reactions probed by reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy

Harmina Vejayan

In my thesis, I present an investigation of the dissociation reactions of gas phase molecules on single crystal metal surfaces studied by a molecular beam in combination with Reflection Absorption Infrared Spectroscopy (RAIRS). Two gas/surface systems were ...

Linking Soil Structure, Hydraulic Properties, and Organic Carbon Dynamics: A Holistic Framework to Study the Impact of Climate Change and Land Management

Sara Bonetti

Climate change and unsustainable land management practices have resulted in extensive soil degradation, including alteration of soil structure (i.e., aggregate and pore size distributions), loss of soil organic carbon, and reduction of water and nutrient h ...

Preparation of Highly Porous Metal-Organic Framework Beads for Metal Extraction from Liquid Streams

Emad Oveisi, Wendy Lee Queen, Shuliang Yang, Daniel Teav Sun, Li Peng, Olga Trukhina, Ilia Kochetygov, Olga Syzgantseva, Anita Justin

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offer great promise in a variety of gas- and liquid-phase separations. However, the excellent performance on the lab scale hardly translates into pilot- or industrial-scale applications due to the microcrystalline nature of ...

Tailoring thermal properties of functional materials

Xavier François Mettan

Thermal conductivity (k) plays an essential role in functional devices. In some cases, high value is required to transfer heat efficiently. In others, low k assists in maintaining a temperature gradient necessary for device operation. It is profitable to d ...

Measuring the accuracy of softball impact simulations

Pascal Fua

A study has been conducted to review viscoelastic and foam-constitutive models to describe sport ball response to impact with a rigid cylindrical surface. The impact model was developed to simulate a ball-bat collision. Comparisons were made to actual impa ...
