Many in the group attended the 23rd European Conference of ThermoPhysical properties outside of Paris, France. It was a wonderful venue near a castle, great talks and good discussion. The heat wave did not ruin the fun. Fufang also received the NETZSCH ...

A new article has been published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry B, entitled: From Molecular Interactions to Nanocarrier design:Coarse-grained modeling of PEG Self-assembly and Hindsiilactone Encapsulation. Polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based nanocarriers represent a promising strategy for delivering hydrophobic natural products like Hindsiilactone ...

A new article has been published in the Journal of Chemical Physics, entitled: SAFT-VR Sum: Equation of state and transport properties from ab-initio derived Sutherland sum potentials. In recent decades, Statistical Associating Fluid Theory (SAFT) has advanced both in the accuracy of the ...

A new article has been published in Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., entitled: Review of Experimental Data and Evaluation of Equations of State for Modeling Formation of Solid CO2 in CCS and Natural Gas Applications Solid CO2 is a potential safety hazard in many ...

A new article has been published in Physical Review Fluids, entitled: Introducing nonlocal solid-fluid interactions into the Navier-Stokes-Korteweg model Nanoscale fluid morphologies, including adsorbed layers and thin liquid films, are strongly influenced by intermolecular forces. In the article, we present a continuum ...

Fufang Yang was awarded a prestigious Marie-Curie grant, and will join the group as a postdoc for two years. In the postdoc, he will work on unraveling the fundamentals of electrolytes with chemical reactions in thin films relevant to CCS-systems. ...

We welcome Vitor Heitor Cardoso Cunha as a new postdoc in the group. Vitor has a strong background on combining fluid dynamics with the Cahn-Hiliard Model/Density Gradient Theory to describe interfacial effects. Vitor is also an artist. In the postdoc, Vitor will ...

A new article has been published in the Journal of Chemical Physics, entitled: The Limits of Feynman-Hibbs corrections in capturing quantum-nuclear contributions to thermophysical properties Feynman–Hibbs (FH) corrected interaction potentials provide an efficient route to approximating quantum-nuclear effects on properties of fluids and ...

A new article has been published in Fluid Phase Equilibria, entitled: Viscosity, thermal conductivity and self-diffusion coefficient of the Lennard-Jones spline fluid: Evaluation of theories for a short-ranged potential. The Lennard-Jones/spline (LJ/s) potential is truncated and splined such that the potential and ...
