[Illinois] A Microfluidic Approach for Cocrystallization of Drugs and Analysis via X-ray Diffraction
Online Presentations | 27 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s):: Elizabeth Horstman
The process of pharmaceutical drug development is cost- and time-intensive. Candidate drugs (CDs) are screened with many counter ions (salt or cocrystal formers) to find solid forms of the drug with appropriate physicochemical (e.g., solubility, dissolution rate) properties. Cocrystals are...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Avidin-Biotin and Surface Functionalization I
Online Presentations | 24 Apr 2013 | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we start off by taking a look at X-Ray Crystallography and how it is used to understand how biomolecules binding works. The x-ray data is processed by computer algorithms to determine coordinates of all atoms in...

Micromechanics of Polycrystals: Full-field Computations and Second-order Homogenization Approaches
Online Presentations | 30 May 2012 | Contributor(s):: Ricardo Lebensohn
In the first part of this talk we will present a spectral formulation based on crystal plasticity and Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) for the determination of micromechanical fields in plastically-deformed 3-D polycrystals. This formulation, pioneered by Suquet and coworkers as a fast algorithm to...
