Materials with van der Waals bonding are known to exhibit a quantum confinement effect, in which the electronic band gap of the three-dimensional realization of a material is lower than that of its two-dimensional (2D) counterpart. However, the possibility
A data reduction tool was developed to conveniently post-process spherical constant volume flame experiments. Such experiments are employed to obtain laminar flame velocities in a premixed gas mixture. The setup is relatively simple and the only recorded
Coarse-grained (CG) models of polymers involve grouping many atoms in an all-atom (AA) representation into single sites to reduce computational effort yet retain the hierarchy of length and time scales inherent to macromolecules. Parameterization of such

The Joint Automated Repository for Various Integrated Simulations (JARVIS) is an integrated infrastructure to accelerate materials discovery and design using density functional theory (DFT), classical force-fields (FF), and machine learning (ML) techniques

Thermodynamic extrapolation has previously been used to predict arbitrary structural observables in molecular simulations at temperatures (or relative chemical potentials in open- system mixtures) different from those at which the simulation was performed
Ultrafast Time-Domain and Time-Resolved Terahertz (TDS/TRTS) spectroscopic methods are utilized to explore photoconductive properties of conjugated donor-acceptor co-polymers dispersed in room temperature toluene, a nonpolar dielectric solvent. TRTS
Recent interest in isopropanol (2-propanol, C3H¬7OH) combustion stems from its potential as a renewable biofuel. Here, we report shock tube investigations of isopropanol decomposition and reaction with H atoms at (918 to 1212) K and (158 to 484) kPa
A considerable amount of rapid-paced research is underway to combat the SARS-CoV-2 11 pandemic. In this work, we assess the 3D structure of the 5' untranslated region of its RNA, in the 12 hopes that stable secondary structures can be targeted, interrupted
In order to enable large-scale molecular simulations, algorithms must efficiently utilize multi-core processors that continue to increase in total core count over time with relatively stagnant clock speeds. Although parallelized molecular dynamics (MD)
Partition coefficients describe the relative concentration of a chemical equilibrated between two phases. In the design of air samplers, the sorbent-air partition coefficient is a critical parameter, as is the ability to extrapolate or predict partitioning

Vast numbers of unstudied hypothetical porous frameworks continue to spark interest in optimizing adsorption and catalytic processes Evaluating the use of such materials depends on the accessibility of thermodynamic metrics such as the free energy which
Molecular dynamics simulations were used to characterize the self-assembly of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) on a (6,5) single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) in aqueous solution for the purpose of gaining an improved theoretical understanding of separation

In this work, combining high-throughput (HT) density functional perturbation theory and supervised machine learning approaches, we explored the territory of compounds with interesting infrared, piezoelectric and dielectric properties. We have computed Γ
