Illinois MatSE485/Phys466/CSE485 - Atomic-Scale Simulation

out of 5 stars

27 Jan 2009 | | Contributor(s):: David M. Ceperley

THE OBJECTIVE is to learn and apply fundamental techniques used in (primarily classical) simulations in order to help understand and predict properties of microscopic systems in materials science, physics, chemistry, and biology. THE EMPHASIS will be on connections between the simulation...

Illinois Physics 498: Introduction to Biological Physics

out of 5 stars

07 Apr 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Paul R Selvin

We will apply simple yet powerful ideas of physics to gain some understanding of biology. (What is the inertia of a bacteria and how does this affect its behavior?) We will begin with atoms, move to molecules, then macromolecules, then cells, and finally whole systems. For example, how do we...

Introduction to Self-Assembled Monolayers and Biosensors

out of 5 stars

01 Aug 2007 | | Contributor(s):: Michael Toole

Recent research concerning self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) focuses on tasks from fabrication of microelectronics to creating biosensors. This presentation will address the fundamental principles of self-assembled monolayers, formation and analysis of self-assembled monolayers, the basics of...

Ion Selectivity in Synthetic and Natural Channels

out of 5 stars

31 Mar 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Susan Rempe

Transport across membranes and nanopores can be characterized by static equilibrium properties as well as by nonequilibrium dynamic properties. For example, equilibrium selectivity properties of a nanopore can be characterized by the difference in interaction free energy for transferring one ion...
