Accurate simulation models for water interactions with graphene and graphite are important
for nanofluidic applications, but existing force fields produce widely varying contact angles …

Interfaces, the boundary that separates two or more chemical compositions and/or phases of
matter, alters basic chemical and physical properties including the thermodynamics of …

Wood-based solar steam generation devices (W-SSGDs) have enormous potential to
produce pure water by distillation since they are sustainable, easily prepared and green …

We employ molecular dynamics simulations to study the wetting and evaporation of salt-
water nanodroplets on platinum surfaces. Our results show that the contact angle of the …

The dependence of the contact angle on the size of a nanoscopic droplet residing on a flat
substrate is traditionally ascribed solely to line tension. Other contributions, stemming from …

In this work, molecular dynamics simulations are performed to study the deposition patterns
of the cyclic diblock copolymer solution nanodroplet on the solid surface (the wall). We focus …

Understanding heat transfer characteristics of phase change and enhancing thermal energy
transport in nanoscale are of great interest in both theoretical and practical applications. In …

The question of the effect of surface heterogeneities on the evaporation of liquid droplets
from solid surfaces is addressed through nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations …

The refrigerants mixture has a great perspective in the thermal engineering, while the
evaporation of refrigerants mixture still needs to be studied in depth. Therefore, molecular …

We compare all-atom simulations of nanoscale water droplets of spherical and cylindrical
morphologies on flat surfaces with tunable polarities. We find that for both morphologies, the …
