Theory and simulation are used to advance our understanding of pure and multicomponent fluids confined in tight spaces, such as the pores of a zeolite, metal
Much of our knowledge of protein folding comes from experiments on polypeptides in dilute solutions or from theoretical models of isolated proteins. However
Thermodynamics emerged during the 1800s to describe large, classical systems, such as steam engines, and equilibrium. In contrast, quantum, small classical, and
We develop and deploy portable vapor sampling instruments to collect detailed chemical information in the field, in sampling situations where the laboratory is
We develop and evaluate dynamic headspace sampling methods to capture and concentrate vapors from single components (solid or liquid) to determine vapor
