Complex molecules at interfaces - insights from simulation
The behaviour of complex molecules, such as nanoparticles, polymers, and proteins at liquid interfaces is of increasing importance in a number of areas of science and technology. It has long been recognised that solid particles adhere to liquid
Flow instabilities and shear banding in complex fluids
Shear banding instabilities are seen in complex fluids such as wormlike micellar surfactant solutions, which separate into coexisting bands of differing viscosity when subject to shear. This effect can be viewed as a driven, non-equilibrium phase
Recent Developments in Lattice Boltzmann for Complex Fluids
This talk will provide an overview of recent developments in Edinburgh in modelling complex fluid systems using the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method. LB is a particularly useful technique in complex fluids owing to its ability to capture, in a simple
QCD under extreme conditions - How complex Langevin can help
Title: QCD under extreme conditions - How complex Langevin can help Abstract: The phase structure of quark matter is essential for understanding the early time of the universe and the formation of matter in the universe. Computer simulations ar
The simulations of complex colloidal fluids by Lattice Boltzmann
I will talk about the simulation studies of complex colloidal fluids such as a binary fluid with colloids and magnetic colloids in a single fluid. All simulations are implemented by Lattice Boltzmann method which has a fully hydrodynamic effect.
Quantitative genetics of complex traits | The Roslin Institute | The Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies
We are a group of interdisciplinary scientists from all fields, including biologists, engineers, physicists and mathematicians. We have one thing in common: our desire to understand how our genotype leads to our phenotype.
Ranking constituents in complex systems from local and aggregate information
Many complex systems exhibit a natural hierarchy in which elements can be ranked according to a notion of “influence”: from characterising how species of an ecosystem interact with each other (according to their trophic levels), to determining
Complex Fluids Characterization Through Expert System & High Frequency Rheometry
Colloidal & nanostructured complex fluids are ubiquitious across a range of industrial & consumer products. Inks, paints, drilling fluids, drug delivery vehicles, shampoos, conditioners, deodorants constituting some common examples. The fundamenta
Homi Bhabha Lecture - At the edge of glassiness: how simple can a complex system be?
Institute of Physics' Homi Bhabha Lecture. Every two years the Institute of Physics sponsors a lecture tour in the UK by an eminent Indian physicist. This year the Homi Bhabha lecturer is Professor Sabyasachi Bhattacharya, former Director of the
